The sole duty of a bare trustee will be to convey legal title to the trust property on demand by and according to the instructions of the beneficial owner. This would generally be provided for in the trust document or other documents establishing the trust. The bare trustee will not have any independent power, discretion or responsibility pertaining to the trust property. In such cases, the beneficial owner retains the right to control and direct the trustee in all matters relating to the trust property. Therefore, a trust will not be considered to be a bare trust where the trustee has other duties which involve independent or discretionary powers and responsibilities.

The trustee of a bare trust could be a nominee corporation, which holds bare legal title to property in trust for third parties pursuant to a trust agreement or other documents establishing a trust, and has limited powers, duties and responsibilities as set out above. The third parties could be the shareholders, provided they exercise all of their discretionary powers in respect of the property outside the trustee corporation. For instance, they should provide instructions to the corporation, or the directors, through whom the corporation acts, regarding management of trust property. However, if the directors also are the beneficial owners and if they cause the corporation to perform management functions without clear instructions in writing from the shareholders, the Department will take the view that there is a "true trust" and not an agency relationship.
