§940. Acquisition of control over an existing association
In any case in which a person or group of persons acting in concert propose to purchase or acquire voting common stock of any capital stock association after its organization or conversion, and the purchase or acquisition would cause the person or group of persons, acting in concert, to have control of the association, as defined in R.S. 6:941, such person or group of persons, acting in concert, first shall make application to the commissioner for a certificate of approval of such purchase or acquisition. The application shall contain the name and address of the proposed new owners of voting common stock. The commissioner shall issue a certificate of approval only after he is satisfied that the proposed new owners of voting common stock are qualified by character, experience, and financial responsibility to control the association in a legal and proper manner and that the interest of the stockholders, depositors, and creditors of the association and the interest of the public generally will not be jeopardized by the proposed purchase or acquisition of voting common stock.
