Michigan § 487.12408 - Deposits received while bank in conservatorship.

While a bank is in conservatorship, the commissioner may require the conservator to set aside and make available for withdrawal by depositors and payment to other creditors, on a ratable basis, amounts that in the opinion of the commissioner may be used safely for this purpose.

The commissioner may permit the conservator to receive deposits.

Deposits received while the bank is in conservatorship shall not be subject to any limitation as to payment or withdrawal. The deposits and any new assets acquired on account of the deposits shall be segregated and held especially for the new deposits and shall not be used to liquidate any indebtedness of the bank existing at the time that a conservator was appointed for it or any subsequent indebtedness incurred for the purpose of liquidating any indebtedness of the bank existing at the time the conservator was appointed.

The requirements of subsection (3) shall remain in effect not more than 15 days following the date that the conservator returns control of the bank to its board of directors.

Deposits received while the bank is in conservatorship shall be kept in cash, invested in the direct obligations of the United States, or deposited in depository institutions designated by the commissioner.

Before returning control of the bank to its board of directors, the conservator shall publish a notice in form approved by the commissioner, stating the date on which the affairs of the bank will be returned to its board of directors and that the provisions of subsection (3) will not be in effect after 15 days from that date. The conservator shall send a copy of the notice to every person who deposited money in the bank after the appointment of the conservator and before the time when control of the bank is returned to its directors.
