I'm sorry, but I do think a public forum is the best place to discuss these matters. You have made a bold public claim that seems to fly in the face of established trust precedent that has existed for many many years and will not publicly explain why that is. The cynic in me needs assurances that are concrete from independent sources, such as from cases. I am sure that banks are satisfied with your deeds since your clients are able to get finance, and that some lawyers are able to use the to sign off on contracts, but from what I know of the rule against perpetuities, I am still not comfortable. The legislation itself says that where a settlement takes place (forming a trust), it can't last more than 80 years.
It seems quite strange as well that you are signing confidentiality contracts in a way that prevents you from discussing the deed. Your clients have full access to their own trust deed?
It also seems strange that the PIT has been out there for a while now and no one else in the market is selling perpetuity period free deeds. One would have thought that by now some people would have read your deeds and started their own version (aka copy). There are some brilliant trust lawyers in this country and they aren't selling perpetuity period free deeds. If they could, I am certain they would. My Macquarie deeds have vesting limitations (clause 1.16) and they are considered to be on the forefront of developments in the investing world. I understand that you have put a lot of effort into these deeds, but from what I know of human nature, people like to follow the leader. Why aren't they doing that in this instance?
I do respect your accounting practice, I just have questions.
