A form of trust, usually express, where there is some discretion to be exercised by the trustee(s) in the allocation of benefits of the trust. Unlike in a fixed trust, the beneficiaries of the discretionary trust have no identifiable equitable interest in the trust property until the discretion of the trustee is actually exercised.
