A trust is a legal setup in which one party (the trustee) holds and manages assets—like cash, stocks or property—on behalf of other people (beneficiaries) according to instructions from the person who created it (the grantor). Think of it as a locked box with a keyholder who must follow written rules; for investors it matters because trusts influence who controls and benefits from assets, affect taxes and succession, and can change how quickly or transparently shares are bought, sold or voted.
