What is an asset protection trust?

A trust designed to accomplish a number of estate planning goals of its settlor, before and after death, including planning for the preservation of the settlor's estate from a variety of risks which would threaten to dissipate the estate if one or more of the risks materialised. An APT is typically established in a jurisdiction other than the settlor's home country.
