  A custodian shall:   Take control of custodial property;   Register or record title to custodial property if appropriate; and   Collect, hold, manage, invest, and reinvest custodial property.     In dealing with custodial property, a custodian shall invest and reinvest the custodial property as would prudent men of discretion and intelligence who are seeking a reasonable income and the preservation of their capital, without reference to the laws relating to permissible investments by fiduciaries.If a custodian has a special skill or expertise or is named custodian on the basis of representations of a special skill or expertise, the custodian shall use that skill or expertise.However, a custodian, in the custodian's discretion and without liability to the minor or the minor's estate, may retain any custodial property received from a transferor without reference to the laws relating to permissible investments by fiduciaries.   A custodian may invest in or pay premiums on life insurance or endowment policies on:   The life of the minor only if the minor or the minor's estate is the sole beneficiary; or   The life of another person in whom the minor has an insurable interest only to the extent that the minor, the minor's estate, or the custodian in the capacity of custodian is the irrevocable beneficiary.     A custodian at all times shall keep custodial property separate and distinct from all other property in a manner sufficient to identify it clearly as custodial property of the minor. Custodial property consisting of an undivided interest is so identified if the minor's interest is held as a tenant in common and is fixed. Custodial property subject to recordation is so identified if it is recorded, and custodial property subject to registration is so identified if it is either registered, or held in an account designated, in the name of the custodian, followed in substance by the words: "as a custodian for ________________________ (name of minor) under 'The Georgia Transfers to Minors Act.' "   A custodian shall keep records of all transactions with respect to custodial property, including information necessary for the preparation of the minor's tax returns, and shall make them available for inspection at reasonable intervals by a parent or legal representative of the minor or by the minor if the minor has attained the age of 14 years.

  A custodian, acting in a custodial capacity, has all the rights, powers, and authority over custodial property that adult owners have over their own property, but a custodian may exercise those rights, powers, and authority in that capacity only.

  A custodian may deliver or pay to the minor or expend for or apply to the minor's benefit so much or the whole of the custodial property as the custodian considers advisable for the support, maintenance, education, and general use and benefit of the minor in such manner, at such time or times, and to such extent as the custodian may deem suitable and proper, without court order and without regard to:   The duty or ability of the custodian personally or of any other person to support the minor; or   Any other income or property of the minor which may be applicable or available for that purpose.     On petition of an interested person or the minor if the minor has attained the age of 14 years, the court may order the custodian to deliver or pay to the minor or expend for the minor's benefit so much of the custodial property as the court considers advisable for the use and benefit of the minor.
