An investment trust organized in conformity with and by specific reference to this chapter is declared to be neither a general nor a limited partnership, even though the declaration of trust may contain provisions not expressly or by implication contained in this chapter, and even though one (1) or more of the trustees may be or become the holder of a certificate of beneficial interest in the investment trust of which he is trustee.
- (2) A "foreign investment trust" is an investment trust for profit organized under laws other than the laws of this state for a purpose or purposes for which an investment trust may be organized under this chapter.
