Can a trust be formed by a testator in his will?

Yes, a trust can be formed by a testator in their will, known as a testamentary trust. This type of trust is established upon the testator's death and is funded with the assets specified in the will. The terms of the trust, including its purpose and the distribution of assets, are outlined in the will itself. Testamentary trusts are often used for managing assets for minors or beneficiaries who may not be ready to handle them directly.
