CHAPTER 9.5. DESIGNATION OF STATE DEPOSITORIES

IC 5-13-9.5
     Chapter 9.5. Designation of State Depositories

IC 5-13-9.5-1
Application by financial institution to be state depository; ineligibility; certificate
    
Sec. 1. (a) A financial institution may at any time file an application to become a depository and receive public funds of the state on deposit. Except as provided in IC 5-13-8-1 and IC 5-13-8-7, designation of a depository to receive public funds of the state qualifies a depository to receive public funds of a political subdivision. Applications for the state board of finance must be filed with the treasurer of state. The treasurer shall submit each application to the board.
    (b) An application must:
        (1) be made in writing on forms prescribed under section 8 of this chapter;
        (2) contain terms and conditions as required and authorized by this chapter; and
        (3) offer to:
            (A) receive public funds of the state on deposit; and
            (B) provide the security required by IC 5-13-13-7 for the safekeeping and prompt payment of the deposited funds.
    (c) A financial institution is ineligible to become a depository and receive public funds of the state if the institution:
        (1) fails to maintain a capital ratio in excess of the minimum required by the governmental supervisory body of the institution; or
        (2) has been found by the department of financial institutions under IC 28-1-2-40, or the financial institution's primary federal regulator, to not be in substantial compliance with the federal Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009 as it applies to Indiana borrowers.
If the financial institution is already a depository, the institution may continue to hold the public funds until maturity to avoid the imposition of a penalty upon the depositor, although the financial institution may not accept the public funds for reinvestment and may not accept additional public funds. A determination of the ratio described in this subsection must be based on the institution's most recent periodic statement of condition filed with the institution's governmental supervisory body under the regulatory accounting principles as prescribed by the supervisory body.
    (d) A financial institution shall furnish to the board a certificate executed by an officer of the institution signifying that the institution satisfies:
        (1) the requirements of subsection (c); and
        (2) the requirement in section 6(b) of this chapter that the sum of:
            (A) the total principal amount of the depository's outstanding loans to Indiana residents; plus             (B) the total value of the depository's investments in Indiana residents;
        is at least equal to the total amount of public funds of the state and political subdivisions of the state that are on deposit in the depository.
The board may rely on a certificate furnished under this subsection in determining whether to deposit public funds or reinvest public funds in the institution.

    (b) The causes for which the board for depositories may revoke the commission of a depository under subsection (a) include the failure of the depository to conduct lending activities in Indiana to such an extent that, at the end of each quarter, pursuant to the depository's certification, the sum of:
        (1) the total principal amount of the depository's outstanding loans to Indiana residents (as defined in IC 5-13-8-7); plus
