Custody Services

American National Bank Trust’s custody services provide the flexibility of managing your own investment portfolio, while freeing you from the burden of administrative tasks.

Under a custody arrangement, you retain full ownership of the assets and control of the investment management decisions. You may place additional assets in your account, make withdrawals, or terminate the account at your discretion, and reserve the ability to make all security purchase and sale decisions.

American National Bank Trust will handle all the accounting and administrative details for your account. We provide physical protection of your securities, execute your security transactions, reinvest income, and make distributions per your requests.
