Michigan § 487.3415 - Savings bank with branch offices in foreign country.

Notwithstanding section 1105 of the uniform commercial code, Act No. 174 of the Public Acts of 1962, being section 440.1105 of the Michigan Compiled Laws, a savings bank doing business in this state, that has 1 or more branch offices in any foreign country shall be liable for contracts to be performed at any branch offices and for deposits to be repaid at the branch offices to no greater extent than a savings bank, banking corporation, or other organization or association for banking purposes organized and existing under the laws of the foreign country would be liable under its laws. The laws of the foreign country for the purpose of this section shall be considered to include all acts, decrees, regulations, and orders promulgated or enforced by an authority asserting governmental, military, or police power of any kind at the place where any branch office is located, whether or not the dominant authority is recognized as a de facto or de jure government.

Notwithstanding section 1105 of Act No. 174 of the Public Acts of 1962, if by action of a dominant authority that is not recognized by the United States as the de jure government of the foreign territory concerned, any property situated in or any amount to be received in the foreign territory and carried as an asset of any branch office of the savings bank in the foreign territory is seized, destroyed, or canceled, then the liability of the savings bank for any deposit received and to be repaid by it, and for any contract made and to be performed by it, at any branch office in the foreign territory shall be reduced pro tanto by the proportion that the value, as shown by the books or other records of the savings bank at the time of the seizure, destruction, or cancellation of the assets bears to the aggregate of all the deposit and contract liabilities of the branch offices of the savings bank in the foreign territory, as shown at such time by the books or other records of the savings bank.
