“Trusted for over 50 years, this accessible, comprehensive and practical commentary has been written with the needs of the practitioner, the trustee and the academic jurist in mind.

Extensively updated with reference to the latest legislation, case law, and in terms of South Africa’s growing constitutional development, the book also includes a new chapter on collective investment schemes.”
