Whenever the department as receiver, with leave of court as provided in Code Section 7-1-156, undertakes to sell all or part of the assets of a financial institution in its possession in consideration of the assumption by the purchaser of the liabilities due to depositors and other creditors other than the holders of subordinated securities, the department shall be under no further obligation to file any inventory, appraisement, partial accounting, or deliver any notice to creditors other than holders of subordinated securities until the filing of the final accounting unless otherwise directed by the court. Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, in facilitation of a purchase of assets and assumption of liabilities as described in subsection (a) of this Code section, all or any part of the assets may be sold to the deposit insurer for the financial institution in liquidation notwithstanding such insurer's capacity as receiver or deputy receiver of the financial institution.
