CA Fin Code Section 16607


(a)

In this section:

(1)

“Adjusted liabilities,” when used with respect to a foreign (other nation) credit union that is licensed to maintain a branch office, means the liabilities of the foreign (other nation) credit union’s business in this state, excluding (A) accrued expenses, (B) any liability to an office (whether in or outside of this state) or majority-owned subsidiary of the foreign (other nation) credit union, and (C) other liabilities as the commissioner may by regulation or order exclude.

(2)

“Eligible assets” means any asset which the commissioner by regulation or order determines to be eligible for purposes of this section. However, “eligible asset,” when used with respect to a foreign (other nation) credit union that is licensed to maintain a branch office, includes any asset which the foreign (other nation) credit union maintains on deposit pursuant to Section 16606.

(b)

For purposes of this section, the amount of eligible assets and the amount of adjusted liabilities of a foreign (other nation) credit union that is licensed to maintain a branch office each be computed for the period of time and in the manner as the commissioner may by regulation or order prescribe.

(c)

A foreign (other nation) credit union licensed to maintain a branch office shall hold at its branch offices in this state or at any other place as the commissioner may approve, eligible assets in the amount, if any, as the commissioner may from time to time by regulation or order determine to be necessary for the maintenance of sound financial condition, for the protection of the interests of creditors of the foreign (other nation) credit union’s business in this state, or for the protection of the public interest. However, in no event shall the amount exceed 108 percent of the adjusted liabilities of the foreign (other nation) credit union’s business in this state.

(d)

If the commissioner finds, with respect to a foreign (other nation) credit union licensed to maintain a branch office in this state, that the action is necessary for the maintenance of sound financial condition, for the protection of the interests of creditors of the foreign (other nation) credit union’s business in this state, or for the protection of the public interest, the commissioner may order the foreign (other nation) credit union to place all or part of the eligible assets which the foreign (other nation) credit union is required to hold under subdivision (c) in the custody of a bank organized under the laws of this state or a national bank headquartered in this state as the commissioner may designate, and such assets shall be subject to the order of the commissioner.
