Holding of currency or other assets in relation to liabilities. Unusual and extraordinary circumstances; deposit of assets with banks designated by commissioner.

 (a) Upon and after establishing a state branch or state agency in this state, a foreign bank licensed pursuant to section 36a-428a shall keep on deposit, in accordance with regulations adopted by the commissioner, with such banks as such foreign bank may designate and the commissioner may approve, dollar deposits or such other assets, including securities, as the commissioner shall by regulation permit. The commissioner may from time to time require that the assets deposited pursuant to this subsection be maintained by the foreign bank in such amount, and in such form and subject to such conditions as the commissioner deems necessary or desirable for the maintenance of a sound financial condition, the protection of depositors and the public interest, and to maintain confidence in the business of each such branch or agency.(b) Such foreign bank shall hold in this state currency, or such assets as the commissioner shall by regulation permit, in an amount which shall bear such relationship as the commissioner shall by regulation prescribe to liabilities of such foreign bank. As used in this subsection, “liabilities” means liabilities appearing in the books, accounts or records of a foreign bank's state agencies and state branches in this state as liabilities of such agencies and branches, including acceptances and such other liabilities as the commissioner shall determine but excluding amounts due and other liabilities to other offices, agencies or branches of, and affiliates of such foreign bank. For purposes of this subsection, the commissioner (1) shall value marketable securities at principal amount or market value, whichever is lower, (2) may determine the value of any nonmarketable bond, note, debenture, draft, bill of exchange, other evidence of indebtedness, or of any other asset or obligation held by or owed to the foreign bank or its agency, agencies, branch or branches within this state, and (3) in determining the ratio of assets to liabilities, may exclude in whole or in part any particular asset. If, by reason of the existence or potential occurrence of unusual and extraordinary circumstances, the commissioner deems it necessary or desirable for the maintenance of a sound financial condition, the protection of depositors, creditors and the public interest, and to maintain public confidence in the business of any state agency or state branch of a foreign bank in this state, the commissioner may, subject to such terms and conditions as the commissioner may prescribe, require such foreign bank to deposit the assets required to be held in this state pursuant to this subsection with such banks as the commissioner may designate.(Oct.
