Endowment: Proving Seniority and Suitability in Endowment Trusteeship
English:
Question #2014:
The description of “The senior and most suitable” could be a prerequisite to making the eldest among the beneficiaries take overall charge of an endowment. Is it obligatory to prove such seniority and suitability, or does the mere fact of being the eldest allow us to suppose that both the qualities do exist?
Answer #2014:
All requirements for becoming a trustee should be assured.
