| | Comments of The Association of Independent Trust Companies, Inc. on S7-12-01 |
 | | It is interesting to note that banks and trust companies continue to be exempt from the requirements of the Investment Advisors Act of 1940 because of their regulation by a banking regulatory agency as a bank or trust company. |  | | The "assets" of a trust company, such as a member of AITCO, are in almost all cases less than $100,000,000, as the entities do not make loans, the traditional "asset" of most true banks. |  | | Again, while this may be appropriate for a true bank, it is not a workable exemption for trust companies which do not earn revenue from loan payments. |

 | | Trust between certificate holders and relying parties is made possible by the potentially long chain of other trust relationships that exist between the two fundamental entities and their associated CAs. |  | | Since an entity, in trusting an authority, will consequently assign trust to other entities certified by that authority, the trust that an entity has in an authority will be based on its expectation that the authority will only place its own trust in valid entities. |  | | Based on the trust that a company places in the STS, it may choose to extend trust to another company in which the STS places its confidence. |
