Trust in the UAE
A trust is a relationship between three entities, known as the settlor (the individual who creates the trust), the trustee (the individual in charge of the trust), and the beneficiary ( the individual who gets benefits from the trust). 
A trust is an important tool in protecting your asset. It can also be used to help reduce taxes, avoid probate, and give to charity. 
The key to maximizing the benefits of Trusts is finding the right people to manage them for you. Here at Marhaba International we are prepared to wisely manage them.
Foundation in the UAE
Foundations combine characteristics of trusts and corporations where assets are managed by directors (like that of a trustee). Foundations are legal entities with perpetual existence that can be used for a wide range of investments. 
Foundations have great use as a means for private family wealth, offices, and succession planning, and also offer excellent asset protection.
