New Mexico Statutes Chapter 58. Financial Institutions and Regulations § 58-12-10. Corporation; assessments

A. As a basic assessment for the purpose of establishing the “share insurance fund,” the board shall require the original members and each new member to pay over in cash to the corporation an amount equal to one percent of its total member share and deposit balances as shown by its latest June 30 or December 31 statement. This assessment shall be made within ten days after the acceptance of a member by the corporation. Such assessments may be charged by the member to its undivided earnings, or established as an asset.

B. Semiannually, to ensure that the share insurance fund equals at least one percent of the total share and deposit balances of all members, the board shall declare an additional assessment against any member whose share and deposit balances have increased since the previous assessment, for such appropriate amounts as may be necessary to bring the total contribution by such member to the share insurance fund up to one percent of its total share and deposit balances, then outstanding.

C. In addition, in the event the share insurance fund is depleted through any expenditure therefrom made by the board in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Union Share Insurance Corporation Act, a special assessment shall be made against all members, proratably on the basis of their respective share and deposit balances, for such total amount as may be necessary to cover such deficiency in the fund. Any amounts paid by way of such special assessment shall not be credited toward any assessment due under Subsection B of this section.

D. The board may pay to the members a dividend computed on the aggregate of assessments paid by each member pursuant to this section.

E. The corporation shall be subject to such examinations or audits to such extent and manner and at such times as the commissioner or supervisory agency may determine. The cost of any such examination or audit as well as the cost of administration of the fund shall be borne by the corporation.

F. Sums derived pursuant to this section and all increments thereof shall constitute the share insurance fund.
