Confidence: High on statutory permission; execution roles are organizational routing, not verified individual delegations.

Currentness: 2024 official U.S. Code operative text read; relevant amendments in Pub. L. 119-60 (Dec. 18, 2025), 119-21 and 119-103 examined. Rolling OLRC source consulted where retrievable; transaction-specific later-law and delegation confirmation remains necessary.
