Guest Monster Posted August 1, 2000 Share Posted August 1, 2000 Can a 457 Governmental (or non-governmental for that reason) hold individual stocks in a brokerage account? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol V. Calhoun Posted August 6, 2000 Share Posted August 6, 2000 The quick answer is that a governmental plan can, provided that (a) there is no barrier to doing so under applicable state and local law, and (B) the stocks are held by a trustee under the plan trust. In the case of a nongovernmental plan, the stocks would have to be held in a "rabbi trust."
