§ 2. In addition to all other powers granted corporations authorized to accept and execute trusts in Illinois, such a corporation, when acting as a fiduciary or co-fiduciary, may, unless otherwise provided by the agreement, will, deed, court order or other instrument:
(a) Cause securities to be registered in the name of a nominee without mention of its fiduciary capacity in any instrument or record constituting or evidencing title thereto, and may cause certificates representing securities, including those held in bearer form, of the same class of the same issuer and from time to time constituting assets of particular fiduciary accounts, to be held in bulk with certificates of the same class of the same issuer and from time to time constituting assets of other fiduciary accounts, without certification as to ownership attached, including the merging of certificates from time to time constituting assets of various fiduciary accounts into one or more certificates; or
(b) Deposit or arrange for the deposit of securities with a clearing corporation, a Federal Reserve Bank or another fiduciary. When such securities are so deposited, certificates representing securities, including those held in bearer form, of the same class of the same issuer and from time to time constituting assets of particular fiduciary accounts may be registered in the name of the nominee of the clearing corporation, Federal Reserve Bank or other fiduciary without mention of the fiduciary capacity in any instrument or record constituting or evidencing title thereto, and may be held in bulk in the name of said nominee with certificates of the same class of the same issuer and with any other securities authorized to be deposited in such clearing corporation, Federal Reserve Bank or other fiduciary by any authorized person regardless of the ownership of any such securities, including the merging of certificates from time to time constituting assets of various fiduciary accounts into one or more certificates.
