04 NCAC 03D .0302          ADMINISTRATION OF trust business

(a)  A state trust entity shall conduct its trust business

separate and apart from any other business it conducts.  A state trust entity

trust entity and other departments of the state trust entity may utilize its

trust personnel and facilities to the extent not prohibited by law.

(b)  Board of Directors

(1)           The trust business of a state trust entity

shall be managed by or under the direction of its board of directors. In

discharging this responsibility, the board of directors may assign, by action

duly entered in the minutes, the administration of the state trust entity's

trust business as it may consider proper to assign to such director(s),

officers(s), or employee(s), who are qualified and competent to administer

trust business, and it may designate and appoint such committees of director(s)

or officer(s) as it deems advisable to supervise the trust business.

(2)           No trust business shall be accepted without

the prior approval of the board of directors, or of the director(s),

officer(s), or committee(s) to whom the board of directors may have designated

the performance of that responsibility.  A written record shall be made of such

acceptances and of the relinquishment or closing out of each account.  Upon the

acceptance of an account for which the state trust entity has investment

responsibility, a review of the assets shall be made.  The board of directors

shall also ensure that at least once during every calendar year thereafter, and

within 15 months of the last review, all the assets held in each account that

the state trust entity has investment responsibilities for are reviewed to

determine the advisability of retaining or disposing of such assets.

(c)  All officers and employees taking part in the

administration of trust business shall be adequately bonded.

(d)  Every state trust entity shall designate, employ, or

retain competent legal counsel who shall be readily available to advise on the

trust business it conducts.

(e)  Negotiable and tangible assets held by the state trust

entity in its own vaults shall be placed in the joint custody of at least two

or more bonded officers or employees designated by the board of directors.

(f)  Funds held by a state trust entity in a fiduciary

capacity awaiting investment or distribution shall be invested, pursuant to the

provisions of G.S. 53-163.1.

(g)  Trust business investments by a state trust entity in

its own depository accounts shall be secured in the manner and to the extent

required by G.S. 53-163.1 and G.S. 53-163.3.
