institutional fund; and

order to monitor the agents performance and compliance with the scope and
terms of the delegation.

agent owes a duty to the institution to exercise reasonable care to comply with
the scope and terms of the delegation.

1 is not liable for the decisions or actions of an agent to which the function
was delegated.

or investment function from an institution that is subject to the laws of this

delegated function.

and investment functions to its committees, officers or employees as authorized
by law of this State other than NRS 164.640 to 164.680 , inclusive.
