Recently, the reporter learned from the industry that the China Trust Industry Association initiated the formulation of the “Family Trust Business Guidelines” in February 2025 and formed a “Draft for Comments” in November 2025. The “Draft for Solicitation of Comments” clarifies the definition and working principles of family trusts, and requires trust companies to establish and improve risk management systems to effectively identify, evaluate, monitor and control business risks. At the same time, standardize family trust business marketing promotion, due diligence, program design, contract text and signing, trust asset delivery, etc., as well as management requirements during the period of existence. In addition, the “Draft for Solicitation of Comments” also requires that trust companies should establish an assessment incentive mechanism for departments and employees that is compatible with the family trust business and is different from the asset management trust business. The assessment standards can cover various dimensions such as business scale and business compliance, and be incorporated into the company's existing internal rating assessment system.
