CHAPTER 9.5. DESIGNATION OF STATE DEPOSITORIES
IC 5-13-9.5
Chapter 9.5. Designation of State Depositories
IC 5-13-9.5-1
Application by financial institution to be state depository;
ineligibility; certificate
Sec. 1. (a) A financial institution may at any time file an
application to become a depository and receive public funds of the
state on deposit. Except as provided in IC 5-13-8-1 and IC 5-13-8-7,
designation of a depository to receive public funds of the state
qualifies a depository to receive public funds of a political
subdivision. Applications for the state board of finance must be filed
with the treasurer of state. The treasurer shall submit each
application to the board.
(b) An application must:
(1) be made in writing on forms prescribed under section 8 of
this chapter;
(2) contain terms and conditions as required and authorized by
this chapter; and
(3) offer to:
(A) receive public funds of the state on deposit; and
(B) provide the security required by IC 5-13-13-7 for the
safekeeping and prompt payment of the deposited funds.
(c) A financial institution is ineligible to become a depository and
receive public funds of the state if the institution:
(1) fails to maintain a capital ratio in excess of the minimum
required by the governmental supervisory body of the
institution; or
(2) has been found by the department of financial institutions
under IC 28-1-2-40, or the financial institution's primary federal
regulator, to not be in substantial compliance with the federal
Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act
of 2009 as it applies to Indiana borrowers.
If the financial institution is already a depository, the institution may
continue to hold the public funds until maturity to avoid the
imposition of a penalty upon the depositor, although the financial
institution may not accept the public funds for reinvestment and may
not accept additional public funds. A determination of the ratio
described in this subsection must be based on the institution's most
recent periodic statement of condition filed with the institution's
governmental supervisory body under the regulatory accounting
principles as prescribed by the supervisory body.
(d) A financial institution shall furnish to the board a certificate
executed by an officer of the institution signifying that the institution
satisfies:
(1) the requirements of subsection (c); and
(2) the requirement in section 6(b) of this chapter that the sum
of:
(A) the total principal amount of the depository's outstanding
loans to Indiana residents; plus
(B) the total value of the depository's investments in Indiana
residents;
is at least equal to the total amount of public funds of the state
and political subdivisions of the state that are on deposit in the
depository.
The board may rely on a certificate furnished under this subsection
in determining whether to deposit public funds or reinvest public
funds in the institution.

qualified under section 1 of this chapter that:
(1) properly files an application to receive a deposit of public
funds of the state and to provide the security required by
IC 5-13-13-7; and
(2) is suitably located with reference to the convenience of the
officers and state institutions using that financial institution.
(b) The state board of finance may invite and act upon
applications and designate depositories at any time when additional
depositories may be available or are required for the state or a
political subdivision.

Expiration of designation as depository
Sec. 4. When the state board of finance has designated a

application of the financial institution to act as a depository for
public funds. A designation under this section expires only under the
following conditions:
(1) The board of depositories revokes the status of the financial

Revocation of commission of depository; causes
Sec. 6. (a) The board for depositories regarding depositories of
public funds of the state may revoke the commission of any
depository at any time for any cause considered sufficient by the
board for depositories.
(b) The causes for which the board for depositories may revoke
the commission of a depository under subsection (a) include the
failure of the depository to conduct lending activities in Indiana to
such an extent that, at the end of each quarter, pursuant to the
depository's certification, the sum of:
(1) the total principal amount of the depository's outstanding
loans to Indiana residents (as defined in IC 5-13-8-7); plus
(2) the total value of the depository's investments in Indiana
residents (as defined in IC 5-13-8-7);
is at least equal to the total amount of public funds of the state and
political subdivisions of the state that are on deposit in the
depository.
(c) Upon revocation, the depository shall immediately render an
accounting and make settlement for all public funds deposited with
the depository.
