  8  3 subsection 5 or 6 exceeds fifteen percent, the proposed
  8  4 acquisition does not comply with the limitation of subsection
  8  5 2.  
  8  6                           EXPLANATION
  8  7    This bill amends Code section 524.1802, which establishes a
  8  8 limitation on deposits in Iowa which may be held by a
  8  9 depository institution (a bank or savings association) or a
  8 10 bank or savings and loan holding company, together with all of
  8 11 its affiliates, by establishing the manner for the
  8 12 superintendent of banking to determine compliance with the
  8 13 limitation in the event of a proposed acquisition of a
  8 14 depository institution or the deposits of any branch, office,
  8 15 or other facility of a depository institution.  The bill
  8 16 increases the limitation on deposits in Iowa which may be held
  8 17 by a depository institution or holding company, together with
  8 18 all of its affiliates, from 10 percent to 15 percent of the
  8 19 total deposits in Iowa.
  8 20    The bill provides that if the superintendent determines
  8 21 that an acquisition may involve a question of compliance with
  8 22 the deposit limitation, each depository institution and
  8 23 holding company involved in the acquisition must submit to the
  8 24 superintendent a statement, certified by its president, chief
  8 25 executive officer, or chief financial officer, that no
  8 26 transfer, assignment, or other disposition of deposits has
  8 27 been made for the purpose of achieving compliance with the
  8 28 deposit limitation.  Certain transfers of deposits are not
  8 29 deemed to be made for the purpose of achieving compliance with
  8 30 the deposit limitation.
  8 31    The bill provides that the statement must also include
  8 32 deposit information sufficient to permit the superintendent to
  8 33 determine compliance with the deposit limitation, including
  8 34 all of the deposits in Iowa held by the acquiring entity,
  8 35 together with all of the deposits in Iowa held by all of its
  9  1 affiliates, as stated in the two most recent available annual
  9  2 deposit reports filed with each institution's regulator, and
  9  3 all of the deposits directly or indirectly acquired by the
  9  4 acquiring entity, together with all of the deposits directly
  9  5 or indirectly acquired by all of its affiliates, in an
  9  6 acquisition or series of acquisitions occurring after the date
  9  7 of the most recent report or occurring between the dates of
  9  8 the two most recent reports.
  9  9    The bill takes effect upon enactment and is retroactively
  9 10 applicable to January 1, 2000.
