Supercargo example:

At the age of 30, Bowditch was invited to become President of the Essex Fire and Marine Insurance Company in Salem. In 1817 he set up the Orne Memorial trust fund for ministers of Salem's First Church, the first instance of what has come to be known in financial circles as a "Massachusetts Trust." Translating his experience as a marine supercargo to the world of general finance, he set up separate accounts so that losses or gains in one account did not affect the others.
