§ 154.256. STANDARD OF CARE OF TRUSTEE. A trustee, in
administering assets held in a prepaid funeral benefits trust,
shall exercise the judgment and care under the circumstances that a
person of ordinary prudence, discretion, and intelligence
exercises in the management of the person's own affairs, not in
regard to speculation but in regard to the permanent disposition of
the person's money, considering:
(1) the probable income from and probable increase in
value of the person's capital;
(2) the safety of the person's capital; and
(3) the investment of all the assets of the trust the
trustee has the power to administer rather than the prudence of a
single investment of the trust.
Acts 1997, 75th Leg., ch. 1008, § 1, eff. Sept. 1, 1997.
