  1  1    Section 1.  Section 509A.12, Code 1999, is amended to read
  1  2 as follows:
  1  3    509A.12  DEFERRED COMPENSATION PROGRAM FOR GOVERNMENTAL
  1  4 EMPLOYEES.
  1  5    A governing body, county board of supervisors, or other
  1  6 public entity, to the extent allowed by law, may establish a
  1  7 deferred compensation program under this section.  The
  1  8 contributions made on behalf of an employee who chooses to
  1  9 participate in the program shall be invested at the direction
  1 10 of the employee in a life insurance contract, annuity
  1 11 contract, mutual fund, security, or any other deferred payment
  1 12 contract offered as an investment option under the program.
  1 13 The contract acquired for an employee shall be in accordance
  1 14 with the plan document and shall be acquired from a company,
  1 15 or a salesperson for that company, that is authorized to do
  1 16 business in this state.  When the state of Iowa acquires an
  1 17 investment product pursuant to the plan document the state
  1 18 does not become a shareholder, stockholder, or owner of a
  1 19 corporation in violation of Article VIII, section 3, of the
  1 20 Constitution of the State of Iowa or any other provision of
  1 21 law.
  1 22    This section is in addition to any benefit program provided
  1 23 by law for employees of the state or its political
  1 24 subdivisions.
  1 25    A deferred compensation program established under this
  1 26 section shall provide that information on investment options
  1 27 selected and amounts deferred by an employee who participates
  1 28 in the program shall be considered a confidential public
  1 29 record pursuant to chapter 22.
  1 30    Sec. 2.  Section 714.16, subsection 2, Code 1999, is
  1 31 amended by adding the following new paragraph:
  1 32    NEW PARAGRAPH.  n.  It is an unlawful practice for a
  1 33 financial institution, as defined in section 421.17A, to
  1 34 disclose personal financial information obtained from a person
  1 35 unless the disclosure is required by law or otherwise
  2  1 necessary to perform the duties of the financial institution
  2  2 relating to the purpose for which the information was obtained
  2  3 from a person unless the person consents, in writing, to the
  2  4 disclosure.  For purposes of this paragraph, "personal
  2  5 financial information" includes financial information obtained
  2  6 by a financial institution from a person including, but not
  2  7 limited to, the person's name, salary information, social
  2  8 security number, telephone number, accounts with financial
  2  9 institutions, credit card numbers and credit card limits, and
  2 10 account balances.  
  2 11                           EXPLANATION
  2 12    This bill concerns the disclosure of personal financial
  2 13 information to others.
  2 14    Code section 509A.12, concerning deferred compensation
  2 15 programs for government employees, is amended to provide that
  2 16 information on investment options selected by participants and
  2 17 amounts deferred by participants shall be considered a
  2 18 confidential public record pursuant to Code chapter 22.
  2 19    Code section 714.16, concerning consumer frauds, is amended
  2 20 to provide that it shall be an unlawful practice for a
  2 21 financial institution to disclose personal financial
  2 22 information obtained from a person unless the disclosure is
  2 23 required by law or necessary, or the person consents to the
  2 24 disclosure in writing.  The enforcement procedures and
  2 25 applicable civil penalties relating to consumer frauds under
  2 26 Code section 714.16 apply to a violation of this portion of
  2 27 the bill.
