Iowa Code Title XIII. Commerce [Chs. 505-554D] § 536A.19. Receivership--liquidation

1. If the superintendent revokes the license of any industrial loan company, the superintendent shall promptly report the revocation to the attorney general, who may apply to the district court of the county in which the licensee had conducted its business for the appointment of a receiver to take possession of the assets of the corporation for the purpose of liquidating its affairs. The court shall appoint the superintendent as receiver unless the superintendent has tendered the appointment to the federal deposit insurance corporation, in which case the court shall appoint the federal deposit insurance corporation as receiver. The affairs of the industrial loan company, after such appointment, shall be under the direction of the court. The attorney general shall represent the superintendent in all proceedings connected with the receivership.

2. When an insured industrial loan company has ceased to carry on its business, the superintendent may tender the appointment as receiver of the insured industrial loan company to the federal deposit insurance corporation. If the federal deposit insurance corporation accepts the appointment as receiver, the rights of depositors and other creditors of the insured industrial loan company shall be determined in accordance with the laws of this state.

3. The federal deposit insurance corporation as receiver shall possess all of the powers, rights, and privileges of the superintendent in connection with the liquidation.

4. If the federal deposit insurance corporation pays or makes available for payment the insured deposit liabilities of an insured industrial loan company, the federal deposit insurance corporation, whether or not it has become receiver, shall be subrogated to all rights of the owners of such deposits against the insured industrial loan company in the same manner and to the same extent as subrogation of the federal deposit insurance corporation is provided for in applicable federal law with respect to a national bank.
