Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

In florida I was wondering if there were any laws protecting a minor when investing. Say a bank took control of a minors trust and invested into stocks and mutual funds and ended up losing more than half the money. Is there any laws protecting the minor from this? If the court appointed this bank to be in charge?
