§124.1. Community reinvestment rating; acceptance of public funds
A. The legislature hereby finds and declares that:
(1) Regulated financial institutions are obligated to demonstrate that their deposit facilities serve the convenience and needs of the communities in which they are chartered to do business.
(2) The convenience and need of communities include the need for credit services as well as deposit services.
(3) Regulated financial institutions have a continuing and affirmative obligation to help meet the credit needs of the local communities in which they are chartered.
(4) Since 1977, the federal Community Reinvestment Act (12 U.S.C. §2901 et seq.) has required that each financial institution receive an annual rating indicating the degree to which the institution has met such community credit needs.
B. Each financial institution shall include in its statement of condition required by R.S. 6:124, at a minimum, a single sentence, printed in boldface type, which states its most recent rating received pursuant to the federal Community Reinvestment Act. Notwithstanding any other provision of R.S. 6:124 to the contrary, such rating need not be included in the financial institution's statement of condition to be submitted to the office of financial institutions.
