Current through Reg. 49, No. 38; September 20, 2024

(a) The following conditions affecting any controlled savings association, regardless of when or how such control has been acquired, are grounds for the Commissioner to investigate, seek to enjoin, or set aside any change of control of a savings association, if the Commissioner deems the transfer to be against the public interest:

(1) the violation of any law, these regulations, abuse of the fiduciary responsibility held by a savings association, or other demonstration of untrustworthiness by the savings association, its holding company, or any controlling person, affiliates, affiliated persons, or any of the officers or directors which would affect the savings association; or

(2) the violation of any antitrust law of this state by the savings association, the holding company, or any affiliate.

(b) The Commissioner may require the submission of such information as necessary to determine whether any retention of control complies with the law of this state, as a condition of approval of such retention of control.

(c) When the Commissioner determines reasonable cause exists to believe that a change of control may have taken place without prior approval, the Commissioner may call a hearing to determine whether there has been in fact a change of control. If the Commissioner finds by a preponderance of the evidence that such unauthorized control exists, the Commissioner may, after notice and hearing, issue an order requiring immediate divestiture by certain persons of unapproved or indirect control, or the Commissioner may issue any other supervisory order the Commissioner deems appropriate.
