Blind Trust

Blind Trust

Blind Trust (deutsch: etwa Blindes Treuhandvermögen) ist die Bezeichnung für einen Trust, in dem der Testamentsvollstrecker volle Entscheidungsfreiheit über das Vermögen des Empfängers hat und auch keine Kenntnis über die Bestände desselben besitzt.[1]

Blind Trusts werden in der Regel verwendet, wenn ein Treuegeber vom Empfänger Unkenntnis über die konkreten Vermögenswerte hat, um Interessenkonflikte zwischen dem Begünstigten und den Investitionen zu vermeiden.[2][3] Es ist also eine Art Finanz-Arrangement, in der eine Person, wie z.B. ein hoher gewählter Beamter, einen möglichen Interessenkonflikt vermeidet, indem sie seine oder ihre Finanzangelegenheiten einem Treuhänder übergibt, der alleinige Diskretion betreffs der Vermögenswerte verfügt.
