SUMMARY This bill makes several changes that affect the applications and operations of different types of banks.
Specifically, it:
1.
increases from $15,000 to $20,000 the application fee to organize a Connecticut bank (by law, this fee explicitly applies to the conditional preliminary approval for an expedited bank, but an organization of an interim Connecticut bank is exempt) (§ 1);
2.
increases from $1 million to $1.5 million the amount of deposit assets that trust banks and innovation banks must keep (§ 2);
3.
exempts innovation banks from one of several existing (a) factors for assessing whether an application to organize a Connecticut bank serves the public interest (i.e.
the population of the area to be served) and (b) considerations for approving a Connecticut bank’s main office relocation (i.e.
the public’s convenience and need for the proposed relocation) (§§ 2 & 3);
4.
decreases from 30 to 15 days the period allotted for submitting written objections to a proposed name change of a capital stock Connecticut bank, mutual savings bank, or mutual savings and loan association after its application to do so has been published (§ 4);
and 5.
requires receivers, when liquidating an innovation bank, to consider the innovation bank’s credit conditions instead of the credit conditions in the locality of the innovation bank (§ 5).
