Resumo: The purpose of this essay is to analyze the possibility of introducing the common law legal figure known as trust in the Brazilian legal system. Trusts were created in England during the middle age and nowadays they are one of the most popular legal devices for wealth management, charity, wills and estate planning and project finance, among other purposes. As they were formed within the common law environment, many dogmatic obstacles to the recognition of the trusts have been raised by some civil law jurisdictions. The main difficulties related to trusts acknowledgment found by civil lawyers are related to the Romanist concept of property rights, which are radically different from the one created by the common law. Hence, we will discuss the historical background of the issue, the efforts that some civil law countries provided to overcome it, as well as the challenges that will eventually be faced by the Brazilian legislator in order to recognize trusts into our legal system
