Sec. 36a-367. Management. - Connecticut Statutes

      Sec. 36a-367. Management. The provisions of this section apply to the establishment and management of common trust funds other than collective managing agency accounts.

      (1) Any fiduciary maintaining one or more common trust funds shall have the executive management and control of each common trust fund administered by it, and the sole right at any time to sell, convert, exchange, transfer or otherwise change or dispose of the assets comprising the same.

      (2) Any fiduciary maintaining one or more common trust funds shall designate clearly upon its records the names of the fiduciary accounts on behalf of which the fiduciary, as such or as cofiduciary, owns an interest in the common trust fund, and the extent of the interest of such fiduciary accounts therein.

      (3) Any fiduciary owning an interest in a common trust fund on behalf of an account may transfer all or a portion of that interest to another account of which it is a fiduciary or cofiduciary if the terms of the instrument establishing the fiduciary relationship require or authorize the transfer of assets to such other account.

      (4) No fiduciary administering a common trust fund shall issue any certificate or other document evidencing a direct or indirect interest in that fund in any form. No fiduciary account owning or holding an investment or interest in a common trust fund shall be deemed to have individual ownership of any asset in such common trust fund, but shall be deemed to have only a proportionate undivided interest in the common trust fund. The ownership of such assets shall be solely in the fiduciary as trustee.

      (5) If any fiduciary maintaining one or more common trust funds holds property as cofiduciary, investment of that property in interests in a common trust fund may be made only with the written consent of the other cofiduciary or cofiduciaries and shall be withdrawn upon the written request of any such cofiduciary.

      (6) When mortgages are held in a common trust fund, the reasonable expenses incurred in servicing such mortgages may be charged against the income account of the fund and paid to servicing agents, including the fiduciary administering the fund.

      (7) The fiduciary may charge a fee for the management of the common trust fund, provided the fractional part of such fee proportionate to the interest of each participant shall not, when added to any other compensations charged by the fiduciary to the participant, exceed the total amount of compensations which would have been charged to such participant if no assets of such participant had been invested in participations in the fund.
