Moneys held in trust or otherwise for the\npayment of bonds or in any way to secure bonds and deposits of such\nmoneys may be secured in the same manner as moneys of the corporation\nand all banks and trust companies are authorized to give such security\nfor such deposits. Any moneys of the corporation not required for\nimmediate use or disbursement may, at the discretion of the corporation,\nbe invested in those obligations specified pursuant to the provisions of\nsection ninety-eight-a of the state finance law.
