§  1174-k.  Moneys  of the authority. All moneys of the authority from  whatever source derived shall be paid to  the  treasurer  and  shall  be  deposited  forthwith  in one or more banks and/or trust companies in the  state designated by the authority. The moneys in such accounts shall  be  paid  out on checks of the treasurer upon requisition by the chairperson  of the authority or of such other officer or officers as  the  authority  may  authorize  to  make  such requisitions. All deposits of such moneys  shall be secured by obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of  America or of the state of a market value equal  at  all  times  to  the  amount  on  deposit  and all banks and trust companies are authorized to  give such security for such deposits. Any moneys of  the  authority  not  required for immediate use or disbursement may, at the discretion of the  authority,  be  invested  in those obligations specified pursuant to the  provisions of section ninety-eight-a  of  the  state  finance  law.  The  authority  shall  have  power,  notwithstanding  the  provisions of this  section, to contract with the holders of any bonds as  to  the  custody,  collection,  security,  investment  and  payment  of  any  moneys of the  authority or any moneys held in trust or otherwise for  the  payment  of  bonds  or  in any way to secure bonds. Moneys held in trust or otherwise  for the payment of bonds or in any way to secure bonds and  deposits  of  such moneys may be secured in the same manner as moneys of the authority  and  all  banks and trust companies are authorized to give such security  for such deposits.
