What may be delegated, and the care owed
R.C. 5808.07(A) provides that a trustee may delegate duties and powers that a prudent trustee of comparable skills could properly delegate under the circumstances, exercising reasonable care, skill and caution in selecting the agent, cotrustee or other fiduciary, in establishing the scope and terms of the delegation consistent with the trust's purposes and terms, and in periodically reviewing the delegate's actions to monitor performance and compliance. The delegate owes the trust a duty of reasonable care to comply with the delegation's terms and submits to Ohio's jurisdiction by accepting; a trustee who complies is not liable for the delegate's decisions or actions (R.C. 5808.07(B) to (D)). Investment and management functions are delegated the same way (R.C. 5809.06).
Employing professionals
Among the trustee's specific powers is the power to employ agents, attorneys, accountants, investment advisors and other professionals (R.C. 5808.16(AA)), and to pay their compensation and the expenses of the administration (R.C. 5808.16(O)); a trustee incurs only costs appropriate and reasonable in relation to the assets, the purposes and the trustee's skills (R.C. 5808.05). Expenses properly incurred are reimbursed from the trust (R.C. 5807.09). A payment to the trustee's own agent or attorney for trust property is presumed a conflicted transaction (R.C. 5808.02(C)(3)).
Powers held by others under the instrument
Where the instrument reserves to the grantor, or vests in an advisory or investment committee or another person, a power such as directing investments to the trustee's exclusion, the excluded fiduciary is not liable for a loss from complying with an authorized direction or from failing to act where it timely sought but did not obtain the required authorization (R.C. 5815.25(C)); an administrative fiduciary confined to the administrative duties the instrument names has no other duties (R.C. 5815.25(B)). A person other than a beneficiary who holds a power to direct is presumptively a fiduciary (R.C. 5808.08(D)). Ohio has no directed trust act; how a particular instrument divides the work is a question for a licensed Ohio attorney of your choosing.
