Section 11-41-107
Documents deposited with commissioner
(1)
Every domestic savings and loan association proposing to incorporate in this state shall first deposit with the commissioner the following documents:(a)
Two signed and verified copies of the articles of incorporation of the association;(b)
Two copies of the bylaws of the association;(c)
Applications signed and verified by a majority of the initial directors of such association, setting forth: Names and addresses of the proposed incorporators, directors, and officers of such association; a statement of the experience and general fitness of the officers and directors to engage in the savings and loan business; an itemized statement of the estimated receipts and expenditures of such association for the first year showing that such association will have a reasonable chance to succeed in the territory in which it proposes to operate; and such other matters as the commissioner may require. Such application shall be accompanied by a fee in the form of a certified check in the amount established by the commissioner, payable to the division of financial services.(2)
Upon receipt of such documents, the commissioner shall immediately examine and investigate into the advisability of issuing a certificate of approval for such association, and he shall issue such certificate of approval if, upon examination, the commissioner finds:(a)
That the articles of incorporation comply with all the provisions of articles 40 to 46 of this title;(b)
That the bylaws comply with the provisions of articles 40 to 46 of this title;(c)
That the provisions of articles 40 to 46 of this title have been complied with;(d)
That it is expedient and desirable to permit such association to engage in business;(e)
That the officers and directors have the experience and general fitness to engage in a savings and loan business;(f)
That the financial program of the association is sound;(g)
That the association has a probable chance to succeed;(h)
That its name is not so similar to that of any other association operating in this state as to mislead the public; but the words “the”, “and”, “mutual”, “permanent”, and “savings and loan association” shall not themselves constitute such similarity of names as to be likely to mislead the public.(3)
If the commissioner’s finding is adverse to the association in any of the particulars recited in subsection (2) of this section, he shall not issue a certificate of approval.
