How can I pass on my assets while I’m still alive?

A person is entitled to dispose of his or her assets at his or her discretion and while still alive to pass them to another person without any restrictions. The most commonly used  methods to pass on assets are the following:
1) a will in case of death;

Joint wills (spouses' wills) are allowed.

2) an act of donation through which a person passes on his or her assets to another person at no charge;

3) a lifetime maintenance agreement on the basis of which a person passes on his or her assets to another person who takes responsibility for maintaining the transferor and taking care of him or her;

4) an inheritance agreement on the basis of which the beneficiary accepts to comply with the transferor’s wishes and in case of death of the latter, acquires ownership rights over the transferor’s assets. Furthermore, based on this agreement, the beneficiary may be obliged to perform a given tangible or intangible action prior to or after the opening of the succession.
