Section § 18653

Explanation

This law states that definitions from Section 44 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act apply here. It sets conditions for interstate bank merger transactions. Specifically, the law applies only when the banks involved are industrial loan companies that operate in or are organized under state law. Further, the commissioner can approve these mergers if they align with state interests and meet specific federal requirements.

(b)CA Financial Code § 18653(b) This section does not apply unless each bank involved in an interstate merger transaction (including each insured depository institution that is an affiliate of the surviving, resulting, or purchasing bank) that is organized under the laws of this state or maintains a branch office in this state, is an industrial loan company (as defined in Section 4805.10).
(c)CA Financial Code § 18653(c) The commissioner may approve an interstate merger transaction that is subject to Section 44(b)(2)(B) and (D)(ii) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. Sec. 1831u(b)(2)(B) and (D)(ii)) if the commissioner finds that the transaction is consistent with the public convenience and advantage in this state.

Section § 18654

Explanation

This law gives the commissioner the power to create rules to enforce this chapter, similar to how rules are made in another related law (Chapter 21.5). It clarifies that this ability is in addition to other powers the commissioner already has under another section (Section 18347).

The commissioner is authorized to adopt rules to implement this chapter similar to regulations adopted under similar provisions of law contained in Chapter 21.5 (commencing with Section 3750) of Division 1, and for the same or similar reasons. The authority granted to the commissioner by this section is in addition to the authority granted to the commissioner under Section 18347.
