(b) The amount of the annual assessment on any industrial bank authorized to transact the industrial banking business shall be the greater (1) five thousand dollars ($5,000) or (2) the sum of the products determined by multiplying (A) increments of the bank’s or trust company’s total assets by (B) percentages of the base assessment rate according to the following table: Total Assets (In Percentage of Base Millions) Assessment Rate First $2 100.0 Next $18 50.0 Next $80 12.0 Next $100 6.25 Next $800 6.0 Next $1,000 4.0 Next $4,000 3.5 Next $14,000 3.0 Next $20,000 2.5 Excess over $40,000 1.5 (c) (1) For purposes of the annual assessment, the total assets of an industrial bank authorized to transact industrial banking business shall be determined as of a date fixed by the commissioner. However, if an industrial loan company is not authorized to transact industrial banking business as of that date but is so authorized as of the date when the annual assessment is levied, its total assets for purposes of the annual assessment shall be determined as of the date of the levy. (2) (A) In determining for purposes of the annual assessment on the total assets of industrial banks that are authorized to transact industrial banking business and that have one or more foreign (other state) branch offices or facilities, the assets of the foreign (other state) branch offices and facilities shall be excluded from total assets. However, the commissioner may order the assets of foreign (other state) branch offices and facilities to be included in total assets if and to the extent that it is necessary or advisable in the commissioner’s judgment to (i) meet the expenses of the department on account of foreign (other state) branch offices and facilities that are not otherwise provided for and (ii) provide a reasonable reserve for contingencies. (B) If the commissioner finds that an industrial bank authorized to transact industrial banking business allocated any asset to a foreign (other state) branch office or facility for the purpose, in whole or in part, of reducing its annual assessment, the commissioner may, for purposes of calculating the annual assessment on the industrial bank, reallocate the asset to the industrial bank’s head office. (d) The base assessment rate for each annual assessment shall be fixed by the commissioner but shall not exceed two dollars and twenty cents ($2.20) per one thousand dollars ($1,000) of total assets.
