Sec. 7. (a) At any time when the board for depositories determines that the assets of the insurance fund are insufficient to pay its liabilities, accrued or contingent, or determines that the assessments due or to become due will not be sufficient to maintain the insurance fund in a solvent condition and insure the safekeeping and prompt payment of public funds, the board may enter an order requiring any or all then constituted depositories to substitute other security, in the amount and type as determined by the board from time to time, to secure the safekeeping and prompt payment of public funds. The collateral to be accepted by the board for depositories under this chapter may include, but is not limited to, the following:
(1) United States Treasury securities.
(2) Federal agency securities.
(3) An irrevocable letter of credit issued by a Federal Home Loan Bank if:
(A) the federal home loan bank issuing the irrevocable letter of credit maintains a rating of at least the third highest level from at least one (1) of the nationally recognized rating agencies; and
(B) the irrevocable letter of credit provides that the board for depositories may draw on the letter when necessary to satisfy losses to the public deposit insurance fund under state law.
(b) The board may require any or all then constituted depositories to deliver and pledge to the proper local board of finance or to the state board of finance, under the conditions for joint control of the collateral by the depositories as may be approved by the board for depositories, bonds or other obligations that the board determines are acceptable collateral. The market value of these securities, at the time of delivery, must be an amount determined by the board, which may not exceed the amount of public funds then on deposit with the respective depositories. The board may require depositories to pledge acceptable securities to such an extent that the market value of the pledge will at all times be substantially equal to the amount of public funds on deposit in the respective depositories.
(c) Whenever an order is in force and the amount of public funds on deposit is at least ten percent (10%) less than the market value of securities pledged to secure the payment, as required by the board, the depository may withdraw the excess amount of pledged collateral.
(d) Any order of the board for depositories becomes effective within the time fixed by the board. However, the time of effectiveness must not be earlier than thirty (30) days from the date of entry of the order by the board. The order continues in force until rescinded by the board. Upon the entry of any order by the board for depositories, all then constituted depositories affected by the order shall comply with the order. Upon compliance, and full payment of all its liabilities by the insurance fund, depositories are not required to pay any further assessments for insurance under this chapter until the order requiring collateral has been revoked or rescinded and the collateral returned to the respective depositories.
(e) A depository may elect at any time to pledge and deliver collateral to the board in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the public funds the depository has on deposit. A depository that:
(1) elects this option;
(2) has pledged and delivered the collateral to the board; and
(3) has maintained a one hundred percent (100%) collateral level continuously for the twelve (12) months immediately preceding an assessment;
is exempt from paying any assessment authorized by this article while the collateral continues to be maintained with the board.
(f) If the fund balance is zero (0), each depository shall pledge and deliver collateral to the board equal to the depository's pro rata share of total deposit accounts of public funds based on an average of the depository's total deposit accounts of public funds for the previous four (4) quarters, as reported under this article, as determined by the board from time to time, with at least fifteen (15) days notice to the depository, to secure the safekeeping and prompt payment of public funds.
