Illinois Statutes Chapter 205. Financial Regulation § 620/4-1. Foreign corporate fiduciary; certificate of authority

§ 4-1. Foreign corporate fiduciary; certificate of authority. After July 13, 1953, no foreign corporation, including banks, savings banks, and savings and loan associations, now or hereafter organized under the laws of any other state or territory, and no national banking association having its principal place of business in any other state or territory or federal savings and loan association or federal savings bank having its principal place of business in any other state or territory, may procure a certificate of authority under Article II of this Act  1 and any certificate of authority heretofore issued hereunder to any such foreign corporation or to any such national banking association shall become null and void on July 13, 1953, except that any such foreign corporation or any such national banking association actually acting as trustee, executor, administrator, administrator to collect, guardian, or in any other like fiduciary capacity in this State on July 13, 1953, may continue to act as such fiduciary in that particular trust or estate until such time as it has completed its duties thereunder. Such foreign corporation and such national banking association shall be subject to the provisions in this Article IV, regardless of whether its certificate of authority was obtained before July 13, 1953. The right and eligibility of any foreign corporation, any national banking association having its principal place of business in any other state or territory or any federal savings and loan association or federal savings bank having its principal place of business in any other state or territory hereafter to act as trustee, executor, administrator, administrator to collect, guardian, or in any other like fiduciary capacity in this State shall be governed solely by the provisions of this Act. Provided, however, that the Commissioner shall not be required to conduct an annual examination of such foreign corporation pursuant to Section 5-2 of this Act, but may examine such foreign corporation as the Commissioner deems appropriate. “Principal place of business” of any bank, federal savings and loan association or savings bank, for purposes of this Article IV, means the principal office as designated on the charter by its principal regulator.
