§ 8903. Management of fund.

(a) Control and management of fund.--The members of the board shall be the trustees of the fund. Regardless of any other provisions of law governing the investment of funds under the control of an administrative board of the State government, the trustees shall have exclusive control and management of the fund and full power to invest the fund in accordance with the provisions of this section, subject, however, to the exercise of that degree of judgment, skill and care under the circumstances then prevailing which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence who are familiar with such matters exercise in the management of their own affairs, not in regard to speculation but in regard to the permanent disposition of the fund, considering the probable income to be derived therefrom as well as the probable safety of their capital. The trustees shall have the power to hold, purchase, sell, lend, assign, transfer or dispose of any of the securities and investments in which any of the moneys in the fund shall have been invested as well as of the proceeds of the investments, including, but not limited to, directed commissions which have accrued to the benefit of the fund as a consequence of the investments and of the moneys belonging to the fund, subject in every case to meeting the standard of prudence set forth in this section.

(b) Custodian of fund.--The State Treasurer shall be the custodian of the fund.

(c) Payment from fund.--All payments from the fund shall be made by the State Treasurer in accordance with requisitions signed by the secretary of the board or the secretary's designees and ratified by resolution of the board. The board shall reimburse the State Treasurer for the cost of making disbursements from the fund in the manner provided by law.
