ISSUES OF MANAGEMENT OF A WILL IN RESPECT OF THE TESTATOR'S DIGITAL ASSETS

Abstract

Difficulties in ensuring the transfer of rights to digital assets to heirs exist today in most legal systems of the world, which is due to the lack of readiness of traditional inheritance law for such rapid development of technologies and the emergence of new objects. Taking into account foreign experience, the article analyzes the main problems that may arise in Russia in the process of executing wills in relation to digital assets due to the restriction in the law of their composition that does not meet the needs of turnover, the lack of a unified approach to understanding the legal regime of their individual types, the need to rethink the status and role of the executor in this process.
