# §150.300. Where may I deposit fiduciary funds awaiting investment or distribution?

- (a) **Self deposits.** You may deposit funds of a fiduciary account that are awaiting investment or distribution in your other departments, unless prohibited by applicable law.
- (b) **Affiliate deposits.** You may also deposit funds of a fiduciary account that are awaiting investment or distribution with an affiliated insured depository institution, unless prohibited by applicable law.

If the FDIC does not insure the entire amount of a self deposit, you must set aside collateral as security.

You must place the collateral under the control of appropriate fiduciary officers and employees.
