Every association must protect itself against loss of money or property by or through any fraud, dishonesty, forgery or alteration, larceny, theft, embezzlement, or other criminal act of any director, officer, employee or agent, by a blanket bond covering all personnel and agents or by individual fidelity bonds, issued by a corporate surety. The amount and form of each such bond and sufficiency of the surety thereon shall be subject to review and disapproval by the State Banking Commissioner. The Commissioner may waive the bond requirement, in whole or in part, upon a showing by the association that such bonding is either unavailable, economically infeasible, or an imprudent business decision. Such waiver shall be for a period of time, to be stated in the Commissioner's order, not exceeding one (1) year, subject to extension upon further application. The order of the Commissioner waiving the bond requirement shall be conditioned on the association continuing to seek an available, economically feasible bond.
