Investopedia explains 'Regulation 9'

Although Regulation 9 gives banks permission to engage in trust-related activities at a federal level, banks must still adhere to state statutes as well. This regulation was issued by the Comptroller of the Currency Department. However, it only applies to national banks and not regional or local entities.
