Wyoming Statutes Title 13. Banks, Banking and Finance § 13-4-104. Merger or conversion into state bank; branch banking by merger or consolidation; application fees

(a) Upon approval by the state banking commissioner, banks may be merged to result in a state bank or a national bank may convert into a state bank. The action by a national bank is subject to the laws of the United States.

(b) Any state or national bank that consolidates or merges in accordance with subsection (a) of this section may upon the completion of the consolidation or merger retain, operate and maintain the banking houses or offices of the merged or consolidated entities and provide other services or functions as would be permitted had the consolidation or merger not occurred. When a merger or consolidation application from a state bank results in maintaining the merged banking house or office as a branch, the application for merger shall be accompanied by an application fee established by rule and regulation of the state banking commissioner. For each additional bank being merged into the same bank, the application fee shall be increased by an amount established by rule and regulation of the state banking commissioner. All fees shall be deposited by the state banking commissioner with the state treasurer and credited to the financial institutions administration account. Expenditures shall be made from the account by warrants drawn by the state auditor, upon vouchers issued and signed by the director or commissioner. Funds from the account shall be expended only to carry out the duties of the commissioner or the state banking board.

(c) Repealed by Laws 2013, ch. 24, § 2.
