Stiftelser är en gammal företeelse som har funnits i hundratals år. Det finns ungefär 19 300 registrerade stiftelser i Sverige med tillgångar uppgående till ett värde av drygt 359 miljarder kronor. Detta gör stiftelser till en positiv och viktig kraft i utvecklingen av det svenska samhället.
I Stiftelsehandboken ges en allmän översikt av det mesta som rör svenska stiftelser. Boken fokuserar både på de legala områdena som civilrätt, skatterätt, redovisning och revision och områden som kapitalförvaltning och utdelningspolitik, samt innehåller även en mer praktisk handledning till hur arbetet i stiftelsen kan organiseras.
Stiftelsehandboken vänder sig till alla som på något sätt arbetar med stiftelser eller som överväger att bilda en stiftelse. Boken berör olika typer av stiftelser med tonvikt på den vanligaste formen, avkastningsstiftelser.
Denna fjärde upplaga har uppdaterats med hänsyn till ändringar i årsredovisningslagen och Bokföringsnämndens regelverk avseende bland annat årsredovisningens undertecknande och upplysningar om väsentliga händelser, nya EU-regelverk avseende hållbara placeringar samt med anledning av några avgörande rättsfall från Högsta förvaltningsdomstolen. Boken är även uppdaterad med aktuella siffror och diagram.

Pensionsstiftelser är ett sätt att trygga tjänstepensioner och är vanligt i större företag i Sverige.
Denna bok beskriver de regelverk som gäller för pensionsstiftelser och den administration som pensionsstiftelsens styrelse ska hantera. Särskilda frågeställningar som rör gemensamma pensionsstiftelser för flera företag beskrivs, liksom nya EU-regelverk som främst påverkar större pensionsstiftelser. Sedan den förra utgåvan utkom har flera nya regelverk tillkommit vars tillämpning innebär utmaningar för pensionsstiftelserna.
Boken behandlar även arbetsgivarens möjligheter att göra avsättningar till och begära gottgörelse från pensionsstiftelsen samt gällande skatteregler. Dessutom ges exempel på olika riktlinjer och dokument samt information som en pensionsstiftelse ska upprätta enligt gällande regelverk. Även vissa dokument som kan vara bra att upprätta för att hantera pensionsstiftelsens administration exemplifieras.
Boken vänder sig i första hand till styrelseledamöter och olika specialister som jobbar med pensionsstiftelser hos arbetsgivare, revisionsbyråer, advokatbyråer eller myndigheter.

Beskattning av stiftelser och ideella föreningar är en handbok för advokater och andra jurister, stiftelse- och föreningsförvaltare, styrelseledamöter och andra som kommer i kontakt med de skattefrågor som ideella organisationer ställs inför.
Reglerna för skattebefrielse för främst stiftelser men i viss mån ideella föreningar förändrades 2014. Boken tar upp reglerna både före och efter den omläggningen och analyserar gamla och nyare rättsfall. Boken belyser olika typer av stiftelser och ideella föreningar. Den behandlar skattebefriade organisationer men anger också hur skattskyldiga stiftelser och föreningar kan undvika skatteproblem. Inledningsvis beskrivs också de civilrättsliga regelverken med inriktning på frågor som kan påverka framtida verksamheten. Hur själva förordnandet formuleras kan bli avgörande för stiftelser som ju ofta inte kan ändra sin inriktning.

Stiftelselagen (1994:1220) infördes för ungefär trettio år sedan. Detta innebar i många avseenden en stor förändring för stiftelserna. I och med stiftelselagens ikraftträdande infördes bland annat regler för en stiftelses bildande, förvaltning, bokföringsskyldighet och upprättande av årsredovisning. Stiftelser - En praktisk vägledning presenterar reglerna för stiftelser som lyder under stiftelselagen. Boken innehåller även ett kapitel med vägledning för stiftelser som helt eller delvis inte lyder under stiftelselagen såsom pensionsstiftelser, personalstiftelser, vinstandelsstiftelser och familjestiftelser. Den omfattar alltså alla stiftelseformer och ger därmed en komplett vägledning för alla som vill lära sig om stiftelser.

Beskattning av stiftelser utgör ett speciellt område i inkomstskatterätten. Utgångspunkten är visserligen att stiftelser beskattas på samma sätt som andra juridiska personer, men till följd av stiftelsens särdrag har det på området utvecklats regler och principer som på olika sätt avviker från hur beskattningen generellt går till. Detta gäller redan grundläggande frågor om vem som är skattesubjekt, hur skattskyldigheten bestäms och hur beskattningsunderlaget avgränsas. Vid avgränsningen av skattesubjektet är en särskild fråga hur man ska hantera förmögenhetsbildningar som liknar stiftelser men som inte omfattas av stiftelselagen (exempelvis utländska rättsfigurer). Mest iögonfallande på det stiftelseskatterättsliga området är emellertid att det föreskrivs att stiftelser i vissa fall ska medges fullständig eller partiell skattefrihet. Sådan skattebefrielse ges främst till allmännyttiga stiftelser. Hela det stiftelseskatterättsliga området präglas av en lång rättsutveckling med en omfattande rättspraxis. I denna bok studeras inkomstbeskattningen av stiftelser och liknande förmögenhetsbildningar. I fokus står inkomstskatterättsliga grundfrågor om skattesubjektivitet, skattskyldighet och inkomstbegreppets omfattning. Studien har en rättsdogmatisk, systematiserande inriktning. Ambitionen är att framställa stiftelseskatterätten som en sammanhängande helhet.

The Oxford Handbook of Fiduciary Law provides a comprehensive overview of critical topics in fiduciary law and theory through chapters authored by leading scholars. The Handbook opens with surveys of the many fields of law in which fiduciary duties arise, including agency law, trust law, corporate law, pension law, bankruptcy law, family law, employment law, legal representation, health care, and international law. Drawing on these surveys, the Handbook offers a synthetic analysis of fiduciary law's key concepts and principles.Chapters in the Handbook explore the defining features of fiduciary relationships, clarify the distinctive fiduciary duties that arise in these relationships, and identify the remedies available for breach of fiduciary duties. The volume also provides numerous comparative perspectives on fiduciary law from eminent legal historians and from scholars with deep expertise in a diverse array of the world's legal systems. Finally, the Handbook lays the groundwork for future research on fiduciary law and theory by highlighting cross-cutting themes, identifying persistent theoretical and practical challenges, and exploring how the field could be enriched through empirical analysis and interdisciplinary insights from economics, philosophy, and psychology.Unparalleled in its breadth and depth of coverage, The Oxford Handbook of Fiduciary Law represents an invaluable resource for practitioners, policymakers, scholars, and students in this essential field of law.

The trust is a highly popular mode of property-holding and one of the most important innovations in the law of equity. It presents the jurist with numerous conceptual, doctrinal, and ethical challenges. In addition to being used towards the pursuit of good, trusts have also been used for ill, and the interaction of trust law with other laws agitates received principles of justice, efficiency, and coherence in the law. Trust law remains, nevertheless, under-theorized. While its technical and doctrinal aspects have been studied intensively, the foundational questions to which they give rise have remained largely unexamined. This volume takes an important step towards filling this gap. The chapters in this book explore some of these quandaries with a view to initiating and encouraging further engagement and learning. They identify different challenges and adopt a variety of methodological approaches and perspectives towards their resolution, ranging from conceptual questions about what is 'the trust' and 'trusts law', chapters analysing the legal and/or moral statuses of each of the settlor, trustee, and beneficiary, to chapters questioning the moral foundations of different trusts and range of pursuits towards which parties have deployed them.

The contributions to this edited volume engage with John Gardner's philosophical work on private law. The content is divided into three parts. The first part gathers contributions on general theoretical issues that bear upon private law. The second part is concerned with Gardner's well-known views on responding to wrongs and the justification of reparative duties - an issue that spans all of private law. The third part turns to theoretical issues within particular areas of private law. Its focus is Gardner's focus: tort law, but it also includes chapters on contract law and equity.The primary aim of Private Law and Practical Reason is to facilitate a critical assessment of the private law thinking of one of the most important legal philosophers of the last fifty years. Gardner's contributions to private law theory are recognised to be amongst the most significant and philosophically rich. This work assembles a group of contributors with diverse theoretical commitments, many of whom have not directly engaged previously with Gardner's work, and is intended to act as a reference point for central debates in private law theory, such as the role of moral duties, the justification of reparative obligations, and, more broadly, the role of reasons in private law.

Kathleen Dean Moore begins with a review of the history of thought and practice on the subject of legal pardons, illustrated with a rich and fascinating variety of historical cases. She then addresses many crucial issues surrounding acts of clemency, including what justifies pardoning power, who should be pardoned, and the definition of an unforgivable crime. She carefully analyses the moral justification of pardons, discussing how to distinguish between justifiable, even morally obligatory, cases and unjustifiable abuses of clemency power.

The term private equity typically includes investments in venture capital or growth investment, as well as late stage, mezzanine, turnaround (distressed) and buyout investments. It typically refers to the asset class of equity securities in companies that are not publicly traded on a stock exchange. However, private equity funds do in fact make investments in publicly held companies. Chapters in this book cover such public investments. The Handbook provides a comprehensive picture of the issues surrounding the structure, governance, and performance of private equity. It comprises contributions from 41 authors based in 14 different countries. The book is organized into eight parts, the first of which introduces the issues, explains the organization of the handbook and briefly summarizes the contributions made by the authors in each of the chapters. Part II covers the topics pertaining to the structure of private equity funds. Part III deals with the performance and governance of leveraged buyouts. Part IV analyzes club deals in private equity, otherwise referred to as syndicated investments with multiple investors per investees. Part V provides analyses of the real effects of private equity. Part VI considers the financial effects of private equity. Part VII provides analyzes of listed private equity. Finally, Part VIII provides international perspectives on private equity.

This monograph outlines the core principles of equity and trusts in Sanskrit jurisprudence (Dharmaśāstra) and traces their application in the practical legal administration of religious and charitable endowments throughout Indian history. Dharmaśāstra describes phenomena that, in Anglo-American jurisprudence, are associated with courts of equity: the management of religious and charitable trusts; and the guardianship of those who lack legal capacity. Drawing on Sanskrit jurisprudential and philosophical texts, ancient inscriptions, Persian legal documents, colonial-era law reports, and contemporary case law, Equity and Trusts in Sanskrit Jurisprudence demonstrates that India's rulers have drawn on rich and venerable Sanskrit jurisprudential principles of equity and trusts in their efforts to regulate religious and charitable endowments. This book presents the history of India as a history of trusts, revealing how the contemporary law of Hindu religious endowments is subtended by a rich mélange of Sanskritic, Persianate, British, and constitutional jurisprudential principles.

The origins of this book lie in the first Oxford Law Colloquium held in St John's College, Oxford, on 12-13 September 1991, organized by the Faculty of Law of the University of Oxford and the Norton Rose M5 Group, a national association of seven major independent law firms. This, it is hoped, will be the first of many such bubble01ces run on a biennial basis. The aim of each conference will be to combine the specialist knowledge of both practising and academic lawyers on a selected subject, enabling the exploration of fundamental concepts, principles, and trends in particular fields of law of mutual interest and importance.The subject of this first conference - Commercial Aspects of Trusts and Fiduciary Obligations - was chosen for its considerable theoretical and practical importance, and the contributors amply demonstrate both the impact of the law of trusts and the law of fiduciaries upon such diverse subjects as company law and insolvency law and the continuing need for further discussion on the relationship between equity and commercial law.Contributors: Sir Peter Gibson, Sir Peter Millett, Paul Finn, Peter Graham, Jack Beatson, D.D.

The Issue of how assets are distributed after death is of increasing significance for larger numbers of people. In this original and path-breaking study, the authors examine the principle means through which people plan to dispose of their assets after death: by the use of wills. By offering an empirical study of 800 English wills, the book identifies significant patterns of bequeathing among a cross-section of the population, and not just among those sections of society who enjoy substantial wealth. This leads us to focus upon what wills tell us about the family and kin relationships, and upon how people transmit their assets across generations: to their families and to institutions and organizations.

The law of tracing is a complex subject which has struggled to find a home in works on property, equity, commercial law and restitution. Broadly speaking, it addresses the question of when rights held in an asset can be asserted in another asset despite changes in form or attempts to 'launder' the initial asset. Properly understood this area of study is composed of several distinct topics. This book explores all the areas covered by the law of tracing in a degree of detail not previously reached in more general works.

This important collection of essays by a distinguished group of trust lawyers demonstrates that trusts law continues to be an area of great vitality and practical significance. Trusts is a subject that excites interest with its mixture of sophisticated thinking and practical commercial application. The papers in this volume not only have international appeal but also cover areas which are currently important to the legal profession. The essays range widely over subjects as varied as non-charitable purpose trusts (important for their use in tax havens in commercial and estate planning roles), the protector (a figure increasingly introduced to discretionary trusts in tax havens), pension trusts (important in the light of recent pension fraud), the duty of care owed by company directors to the company, liability and remedies for breach of trust, equities reaction to modern domestic relationships and taxation of the constructive trustee.

In the last decade, the Charities Acts 1992 and 1993, the emergence of 'the contract culture', and the changing role of the Charity Commissioner, have all contributed to the growing importance of charity law to the practitioner. The Trustee Bill 2000, when enacted, will affect charitable trusts in a number of areas, especially investment and delegation. The Finance Bill 2000 contains some of the most sweeping changes to charity taxation for many years. The Human Rights Act 1998, due to come into force in October 2000, will have an important, but as yet uncertain impact on charities.These recent developments receive full treatment in this book, which aims to provide lawyers and others involved in charity management with an up to date and comprehensive commentary on charity law, including suggestions for drafting. With many new charities being formed as companies, the importance of the various legal structures available to charities is emphasised throughout. Particular attention is also devoted to the view of the Commissioners in the light of their controversial Review of the Register.

The English law of contribution and reimbursement is essentially concerned with any situation where two parties must both pay a debt to a third party, compensate him for harm that he has suffered at their hands, or restore an enrichment which they have unjustly gained at his expense. These situations give rise to questions of how the parties' common liability should be shared and how their relationships with the third party, and with one another, should be adjusted so as to ensure that they each pay their proper share. This book is based on the rules of English law which determine the answers to these questions.Contribution and reimbursement claims often arise in the course of complex multi-party litigation and the rules which govern their determination are scattered through the law reports and statute books. This book provides a clear guide through this maze of legislation and case law, and gives a detailed account of all the substantive and procedural rules in the area. It is an essential source of information for legal practitioners and academics seeking practical advice on this notoriously complex subject.

The book provides analysis of the principal rules of trust law which control the exercise of powers and discretions by trustees. The primary focus is on the principle known as "the Rule in Re Hastings-Bass", and this is considered alongside the doctrines of fraud on a power and mistake. This is the first book-length treatment focussed on this specific aspect of trust law, and in particular the first on the Rule in Re Hastings-Bass, which is the subject of much professional and academic interest especially following consideration by the Supreme Court in Pitt v Holt and Futter v Futter [2013] UKSC 26.Whilst considering Pitt and the Rule in Re Hastings-Bass alongside mistake and fraud on a power, the book also explains how these doctrines interact, and how the law regulates trustee decision-making as a whole. It sets out examples and considers extensive practical problems, allowing the reader to understand not only the core trust law rules, but also the broader consequences of those rules which arise in real cases.This aspect of trust law is of great practical importance for practitioners as it arises frequently in the context of trust litigation, and in advising trustees and beneficiaries of their rights and obligations. The newly settled state of the law after Pitt will encourage reliance on the Re Hastings-Bass and mistake rules by practitioners in challenges to trustees' conduct and decisions. This book equips all involved with the key principles and arguments in this area.

International Trust Laws is a wide-ranging comparative guide to the law of trusts across a number of important jurisdictions, with analysis of issues surrounding the creation of trusts, the powers and duties of trustees, mechanisms of control, and the special uses of trusts. The book combines academic rigour and analysis with a practical focus on trusts in the real world, including assets which modern settlors wish to envelop in a trust; liability concerns of trustees; and the governance, command, and control mechanisms which increasingly form the largest feature of trust creation. It also provides valuable background for trust law practitioners, whether they advise on trusts, draft trust documents, or litigate trust-related matters.The new edition has been fully revised and updated to address important developments in case law and legislation, including the UK Supreme Court decision on the "rule in Hastings-Bass" (Pitt and Futter cases), the Privy Council decision on 'reserved powers trusts' (TMSF), decisions on forced heirship issues in Jersey and Guernsey, decisions on 'asset protection trusts' in the US, the Trusts (Amendment N. 5) (Jersey) Law 2012 and Trusts (Amendment N. 6) (Jersey) Law 2013, Hong Kong's Trust Law (Amendment) Ordinance 2013, the Virgin Islands Special Trusts (Amendment) Act 2013 and Trustee (Amendment) Act 2013, Cyprus' International Trusts (Amendment) Law 2012 Cayman Islands, Trusts Law (2011 Revision), and amendments to the trusts law of New Zealand. It also offers new coverage of the retirement, removal, and appointment of trustees, with a special emphasis on trustee indemnity; and the recognition of trusts in non-trust jurisdictions (civil law jurisdictions, Eastern Europe, Islamic countries, and China).
