Sec. 13. (a) The receiver, with the approval of the receivership court, may appoint a successor to all rights, obligations, assets, deposits, agreements, and trusts held by the closed financial institution as trustee, administrator, executor, guardian, agent, and all other fiduciary or representative capacities. The successor’s duties and obligations begin upon appointment to the same extent binding upon the closed financial institution and as though the successor had originally assumed the duties and obligations. Specifically, the successor shall succeed to and be entitled to administer all trusteeships, administrations, executorships, guardianships, agencies, and all other fiduciary or representative proceedings to which the closed financial institution is named or appointed in wills, whenever probated, or to which it is appointed by any other instrument, court order, or by operation of law.

     (b) This section shall not impair any right of the grantor or beneficiaries of trust assets to secure the appointment of a substituted trustee or manager.
