Limitation on Rights of Trustee as Creditor Clause Samples

The "Limitation on Rights of Trustee as Creditor" clause restricts the trustee from exercising certain creditor rights against the trust or its assets. In practice, this means that if the trustee is also a creditor of the trust, they cannot use their position to gain preferential treatment or recover debts ahead of other creditors. This clause ensures that the trustee's fiduciary duties to the beneficiaries are not compromised by personal financial interests, thereby preventing conflicts of interest and maintaining fairness among all parties involved.
