All prosecutions pending on or instituted after the effective date of this act for offenses committed before the effective date of this act may be continued or instituted under the law in force at the time of the commission of the offense.
(3) This act shall not be construed to affect the legality of investments made or of transactions conducted, under any provisions of law in force when the investments or transactions were made or conducted, nor to require the change of investments for those named in this act, except to prevent loss, or injury to the institution, or to the borrowers on the securities.
