ELTC - Certificate in Trusts in Cyprus: Law, Practice, and Management (Online & Subsidized)

Trusts are a cornerstone of wealth management, estate planning, and corporate structuring across global financial systems. In Cyprus, the growing use of trusts—both local and international—demands that legal and fiduciary professionals stay ahead with deep legal knowledge and strong practical skills. The European Legal Training Centre (ELTC) proudly offers the Certificate in Trusts in Cyprus: Law, Practice, and Management, a 20-hour expert-led online training programme designed to bridge legal theory with applied trust management.

What Participants Will Learn

This in-depth programme gives participants a solid foundation in the historical, legal, and practical dimensions of trusts. Participants will explore the evolution of trusts, their application in Cyprus and beyond, and the critical legal principles governing their establishment and operation. Special focus is placed on understanding the fiduciary duties of trustees, drafting effective trust deeds, and navigating the regulatory framework surrounding trust administration. Participants will gain hands-on insight into various trust types—bare, discretionary, charitable, and asset protection—while also learning how to identify suitable trust structures for client-specific scenarios. Advanced topics include trustee liability, beneficiary rights, exemption clauses, and court interventions.
