State chartered banks granted powers allowed federally chartered banks
Official statutory text
Notwithstanding any restrictions, limitations, and requirements of law, in addition to all powers, expressed or implied, that a state bank has under the laws of this state, a state bank shall have the powers and authorities conferred as of January 1, 2008, upon federally chartered banks doing business in this state. A state bank may exercise the powers and authorities conferred on a federally chartered bank after this date only if the director finds that the exercise of such powers and authorities:
(1) Serves the convenience and advantage of depositors, borrowers, or the general public; and
(2) Maintains the fairness of competition and parity between state chartered and federally chartered banks.
If the director finds that the before-mentioned conditions have been met, the director shall make a declaratory ruling allowing state banks the same powers and authorities.
As used in this section, powers and authorities, include, without limitation, powers and authorities in corporate governance and operational matters.
