Equitable bonds are particularly important in Anglo-American legal systems, especially in trusts and estates law. In Brazil, the concept is recognized but often discussed through different terminology related to equity principles (princípios de equidade) in the civil law framework. The term is more prevalent in legal and financial contexts in the USA than in Brazil, where civil law traditions predominate.
