Except in a transfer or declaration for use and benefit of husband and wife, for whom survivorship is presumed, a right of survivorship does not exist unless the instrument creating the custodial trust specifically provides for survivorship.
(b) Custodial trust property held under this chapter by the same custodial trustee for the use and benefit of the same beneficiary may be administered as a single custodial trust.
(c) A custodial trustee of custodial trust property held for at least two (2) beneficiaries shall separately account to each beneficiary under sections 27 and 35 of this chapter for the administration of the custodial trust.

(1) anticipation;
(2) alienation;
(3) assignment;
(4) pledge;
