If the daughter's money is in a usurious bank, her guardian must withdraw it immediately and transfer it to an Islamic bank, and dispose of the usurious interest by spending it on the poor, the needy, and charitable projects. It is not permissible to spend it on the daughter. However, if the money is in an Islamic bank, there is no objection. The guardian must pay the zakat on this money if it reaches the nisab and a full year has passed over it. If the guardian does not do so, the daughter must do it when she receives the money.
