Michigan § 487.13902 - Compliance review committee.

An officer or the board of directors of a bank may appoint a compliance review committee to evaluate loan underwriting standards, asset quality, financial reporting to federal or state regulatory agencies, compliance with the bank's policies, compliance with federal or state statutory or regulatory requirements, or other related matters.

Any documents, data, compilations, analyses, or other information and material gathered, generated, created, produced, developed, or prepared by or for a compliance review committee by 1 or more employees of the bank or by 1 or more other persons retained by the bank to assist the compliance review committee in performing its functions shall be considered compliance review material.

A document, compilation, analysis, or item of information, data, or material remains compliance review material under this section even if it is delivered or disclosed to employees of the bank who are not members of the compliance review committee or to attorneys, accountants, auditors, consultants, or other professional advisers retained by the bank or to 1 or more other persons retained by the bank to assist the committee in performing its functions or to evaluate the committee.

Except as provided in subsection (5), compliance review material is confidential and is not discoverable or admissible in evidence in any civil action.

Subsection (4) does not apply to any information required by statute or regulation to be maintained by or provided to a governmental entity to the extent that law requires the governmental entity to disclose the information for discovery or admission into evidence.
