Sec. 9. (a) Notwithstanding any other law, a corporate fiduciary, in exercising investment discretion in its fiduciary capacity with respect to the investment and reinvestment of assets, may invest and reinvest the assets, subject to the standard set forth in IC 30-4-3-3(c), in the securities of any open-end or closed-end management investment company or investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. §§ 80a-1 et seq.).

     (b) If a corporate fiduciary invests or reinvests assets under subsection (a), the fact that the corporate fiduciary or any affiliate of the corporate fiduciary is:

(1) providing services to the investment company or trust as investment adviser, sponsor, distributor, custodian, transfer agent, registrar, or otherwise; and

(2) receiving reasonable remuneration for the services provided;

does not preclude the corporate fiduciary from investing in the securities of the investment company or trust.
