Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
The trustees of
trusts established pursuant to this article shall hold the legal title to all property at any time
belonging to the trusts. They shall have control over such property, as well as the control and
management of the business and affairs of the trust. Liability to third persons for any act,
omission, or obligation of a trustee of a trust, when acting in such capacity, shall extend to the
whole of the trust estate, or so much thereof as may be necessary to discharge such obligation,
but no trustee shall be personally liable for any such act, omission, or obligation. The trustees
shall have such powers as to the investment of the trust estate as may be set out in the declaration
of trust, without regard to the type of investments to which trustees generally are restricted by
the provisions of part 8 of article 1 of title 15, C.R.S., nor shall such trustees be subject to the
provisions of title 10, C.R.S., concerning the regulation of insurance; except that the trustees
shall report any malpractice claim against a licensed practitioner that is settled or in which
judgment is rendered against the insured to the Colorado medical board, which board shall
provide statistical data concerning such claims to the commissioner of insurance. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the trustees shall have any powers, whether conferred
upon them by the agreement of trust or otherwise, to perform all acts necessary or desirable to
the conduct of the business of a public liability insurer.
