Excerpt from The Investment of Trust Funds: Incorporating the Trustee Act, 1888, And, the Trust Investment Act, 1889 Since the First Edition of this Book was published a measure of great importance to all persons connected with or interested in the management of trust funds has become law. The Trustee Act, 1888, received the Royal Assent on the 24th day of December, 1888. It is not proposed in this Preface to discuss the clauses of this Act. It is considered advisable to place the full text of the statute, with notes upon the sections, in a separate chapter at the beginning of this Edition. And in later chapters the effect of the various sections of the Act is incorporated into the text, with cross references. The Author will only add here the expression of his humble opinion that the present legislation is, upon the whole, a desirable measure, and one which may be gratefully accepted by the public at large. It will tend to diminish the heavy responsibility cast upon trustees in the management of the trust estate.

Excerpt from The Investment of Trust Funds Laws have been passed in several States to regulate and restrict the investment of trust funds, including savings bank deposits, which are classed as trust funds. In many of the States, however, the selection of investments is left to the trustee, except when acting under instructions of the trustor or a court of law. There have come to public notice recently several cases of financial loss to trustees because of the inferior kind of investments selected. This has caused it to be inferred that there are many persons who are not familiar with the precaution to be observed in selecting securities. It is desired, therefore, to venture some suggestions to individual trustees exercising this discretionary power, which may assist in the selection of sound investments. The suggestions may also be of some value to those who are under the mistaken impression that high rates of interest accompany safe investments.
