221.0306 Memberships and investments in federal home loan bank.
(1) Permitted activities. Subject to review by the division under sub. (2), a bank may, with the approval of its board of directors, purchase and hold capital stock of the federal home loan bank for the purpose of becoming a member of the federal home loan bank under 12 USC 1421 to 1449. A bank that becomes a member may exercise borrowing privileges or use any other services offered to a member by the federal home loan bank, if the privileges or services are not in conflict with the laws of this state. Without becoming a member, a bank may exercise deposit privileges and use other services offered to nonmembers by the federal home loan bank.
(2) Notice and review. A bank that intends to become a member of the federal home loan bank shall give the division written notice of its intention to apply for membership. The division may prohibit a bank from becoming a member if the bank's capital and undistributed surplus is less than the amount required for that bank or if the division finds that the bank is in an unsafe or unsound condition. The division shall have 30 days after the date on which the notice is received to issue a prohibition under this subsection. The division may extend the time for issuing a prohibition up to 30 additional days if the division notifies the bank before the initial 30-day period expires that the division is extending the time limit.
