Now the equitable interest in property in the hands of a trustee can be disposed of by the person entitled to it in favour of a third party in any one of four different ways. The person entitled to it:
- Can assign it to the third party directly;
- Can direct the trustees to hold the property in trust for the third party (see per Sargant J in Re Chrimes [1917] Ch 30 at 36);
- Can contract for valuable consideration to assign the equitable interest to him; or
- Can declare himself to be a trustee for him of such interest.
