| Summary: | The COVID-19 pandemic has been described by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong as the “crisis of our generation”.

This commentary discusses two categories of uncertainties for trustees and beneficiaries: (1) uncertainty relating to trust investments; and (2) uncertainty relating to day-to-day administration. |
