shall make and file in the office of the Commissioner a report in
detail disclosing the results of such examination. The Commissioner
shall mail a copy of the report to the association examined.
However, the Commissioner may accept, in lieu of any three
consecutive association examinations, an examination of the
association by the Office of Thrift Supervision, if conducted within
a reasonable period of time, and if a copy of the examination is
furnished to the Commissioner.
2. The Commissioner may also accept any other report relative
to the condition of an association, which shall include joint or
concurrent examinations that may be obtained by the authorities
within a reasonable period, in lieu of such report authorized by the
laws of this state to be required of such association by the
Oklahoma State Banking Department, provided a copy of such report is
furnished to the Commissioner.
3. The Commissioner may enter into cooperative, coordinating
and information-sharing agreements with the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation, the Federal Home Loan Bank Board, or the
Office of Thrift Supervision with respect to the periodic
examination or other supervision of any association.
4. When requested in writing upon authority of the board of
directors or stockholders owning a majority of the capital stock of
any association, the Commissioner shall, if in the opinion of the
Commissioner such examination is desirable, make or cause to be made
an examination into the affairs and conditions of such association.
For such examination, the association shall pay the same fees as
provided for in subsection D of Section 381.15 of this title.
B. Every association shall make two reports each year.
Associations may be required to make more reports if called upon by
the Commissioner. All reports shall be according to the form which
may be prescribed by the Commissioner. The reports shall be
verified by the oath or affirmation of the president, cashier or
secretary of such association and attested by the signatures of at
least two of the directors. Each report shall exhibit, in detail
and under appropriate headings, the resources and liabilities of the
association at the close of business on any last day specified by
the Commissioner, shall be transmitted to the Commissioner within
thirty (30) calendar days after the call date, and may, at the
option of the association, be published at the expense of the
association in the same form in which it is presented to the
Commissioner. The Commissioner shall also have the power to request
special reports from any association whenever, in the judgment of
the Commissioner, such reports are necessary in order to gain a full
and complete knowledge of its condition. However, the reports
authorized and required by this section, to be requested by the
Commissioner, shall relate to a date prior to the date of such
Oklahoma Statutes - Title 18. Corporations
request and such prior date shall be specified in the request.
Additionally, the Commissioner may accept, in lieu of the reports
referred to in this section, reports made by associations that are
members of the Federal Home Loan Bank System on forms provided by
the Federal Home Loan Bank System.
C. Every association which fails to make and transmit any
report required pursuant to this section shall be subject to a
penalty, at the discretion of the Commissioner, not to exceed Fifty
Dollars ($50.00) for each day, after the specified period, that the
association delays to make and transmit its report. Whenever any
association delays or refuses to pay the penalty herein imposed for
a failure to make and transmit a report, the Commissioner is hereby
authorized to maintain an action in the name of the state against
the delinquent association for the recovery of such penalty, and all
sums collected by such action shall be paid into the State Treasury
to be credited to the General Revenue Fund.
D. The Commissioner may provide a form for the examinations and
reports set forth in this section. All examinations and reports
received by the Commissioner shall be preserved in the office of the
Commissioner for a period of not less than five (5) years. The
preservation may be in an electronic format, and paper copies or
originals need not be retained. Such examination, reports and all
other records of operating associations in the Department are to be
kept confidential, except as permitted by this act.
