Massachusetts Trust

Mutual Assent

A legal trust set up for the purpose of doing business. investors give management authority to a trustee and receive “trust certificates” representing their investments. since they own only the certificates and do not participate in management, the investors are not personally liable for any debts of the trust. similar to a “limited partnership,” a massachusetts trust does not need to be set up in massachusetts.
