Alaska Statutes Title 6. Banks and Financial Institutions § 06.26.240. Conversion to trust company

(a) A private trust company may not offer fiduciary services to the general public as a trust company until the private trust company satisfies the requirements of this section.

(b) The private trust company shall file a notice with the department on a form prescribed by the department, furnish a copy of a resolution adopted by the board authorizing the private trust company to offer fiduciary services to the general public, pay any filing fee established by the department by regulation, and comply with the requirements of this chapter for trust companies. The notice must provide the name of the private trust company and acknowledge that any exemption granted or otherwise applicable to the private trust company under AS 06.26.200 ceases to apply on the effective date of the notice.

(c) The department has 60 days after the department receives the notice under (a) of this section to review the conversion, and a private trust company may begin providing or offering fiduciary services to the general public on the 61st day after the date that the department receives a notice under (a) of this section from the private trust company, unless the department specifies a different date.

(d) The department may extend the 60-day period of review provided by (c) of this section if the department determines that the notice raises issues that require additional information or if the department needs additional time for analysis. If the 60-day period of review is extended, the private trust company may offer fiduciary services to the general public only after written approval by the department.

(e) The department may deny a private trust company permission to offer fiduciary services to the general public as a trust company if the department finds that the private trust company does not meet the requirements of this chapter for trust companies.
