To all,
Please read this article:
globeinvestor.com

"One of the interesting things about the trust boom is that it has been driven almost entirely by demand from retail investors. Pension funds have avoided trusts because of a concern that trust unitholders could be held liable in a situation where the trust goes bankrupt or is involved in a major lawsuit.

Some experts say this liability risk is only theoretical and would not stand up in court. Still, there's sufficient concern to keep institutional investors away."
