There is established in the division a banking board, which consists of nine members appointed by the governor, with the consent of the senate, as follows:(a)
Five members who during their tenure are, and must remain, executive officers of state banks, each of whom must have not less than five years’ practical experience as an active executive officer of a bank. At least two of such members shall represent banks having less than one hundred fifty million dollars in total assets at the time of their appointment.(b)
One member who during the member’s tenure is, and must remain, an executive officer of a business licensed pursuant to article 110 of this title 11;(c)
One member who during the member’s tenure is, and must remain, the executive officer of a trust company; and(d)
Two members who serve as public members of the banking board who have expertise in finance through their current experience in business, industry, agriculture, or education.(2)
No member of the banking board shall have any interest, direct or indirect, in a bank in which another member of the banking board has any such interest. Not more than one of the members shall be an executive officer or employee of any one bank holding company or affiliate thereof.(3)
Of the members appointed under subsection (1) of this section, at all times at least one must reside west of the continental divide.(4)
The term of office of each member is four years. In the event of the death, resignation, inability to act, or refusal to act of any member of the banking board, or the occurrence of any other event that disqualifies the member from serving the remainder of the member’s term on the banking board, the governor, within forty-five days thereafter, or, in the event of the governor’s failure to act, the banking board shall make an interim appointment of a member to serve for the unexpired term on the banking board, subject to the consent of the senate. The governor may remove a member for cause. Any banking board member who is absent from three consecutive banking board meetings is subject to immediate removal by the governor.(5)
Each member of the banking board shall receive the same per diem compensation and reimbursement of expenses as those provided for members of boards and commissions in the division of professions and occupations pursuant to section 12-20-103 (6). Payment for all such expenses and allowances shall be made upon vouchers, which shall be filed with the department of personnel.(6)
The banking board shall meet at least once in each calendar month. The chair of the banking board may call additional meetings of the banking board upon at least seventy-two hours’ notice to all members of the banking board and shall do so upon the request of two members. All members of the banking board are subject to immediate call in the event of an emergency. Four members of the banking board constitutes a quorum, and action taken by a majority of those present at any meeting at which a quorum is present is the action of the banking board. Upon the affirmative vote of a majority of those present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, one or more members may be authorized to conduct any hearing required under this code. In the event that less than a quorum of the banking board is present during the conduct of the hearing, at least a quorum of the banking board shall read the entire record before voting thereon. No member shall participate in a proceeding before the banking board when any corporation, partnership, or unincorporated association of which the member is, or was at any time in the preceding twelve months, a director, officer, partner, employee, member, or stockholder is a party to such proceedings. A member may disqualify himself or herself from participating in a proceeding for any other cause deemed by the member to be sufficient.(7)
A quorum may be established by means of remote participation, which must be recorded in the banking board’s minutes. Upon the affirmative vote of a majority of those present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, the banking board may hold an executive session to consider certain matters required by statute to be kept confidential under this code. Any agenda and the minutes of executive sessions shall be kept confidential by the banking board.(8)
The division shall provide such clerical, technical, and legal assistance as the banking board may require.(9)
The members of the banking board shall, before entering upon the discharge of their duties, in addition to any oath required by the state constitution, take and subscribe an oath to keep secret all information acquired by them in the discharge of their duties, except as may be otherwise required by law. Willful violation of this oath shall be a criminal offense.(10)
The banking board shall elect a chair from among its members to serve for a term not exceeding two years, as determined by the banking board. No chair is eligible to serve as such for more than two successive terms. In addition to the amounts received pursuant to subsection (5) of this section, the chair shall receive per diem compensation and reimbursement of expenses in the amounts provided by section 12-20-103 (6) for each day spent in attending to the duties of the banking board.(11)
The banking board may enter into contracts with temporary employees and for the provision of such other services as it may deem necessary in accordance with section 13 of article XII of the state constitution.(12)
This section is repealed, effective September 1, 2024.
