HOME OFFICE

(a) Each state trust company must have and continuously maintain in this state a home office. The home office must be a location at which the state trust company does business and keeps its corporate books and records. At least one executive officer must maintain an office at the home office. (b) Repealed by Acts 2007, 80th Leg., R.S., Ch. 244, Sec. 3, eff. September 1, 2007. (c) A state trust company may change its home office to any location in this state, if the location that is the home office before the change remains an office of the state trust company at which the state trust company does business. To change the location of its home office, the state trust company must file a written notice with the banking commissioner setting forth the name of the state trust company, the street address of its home office before the change, the street address to which the home office is to be changed, and a copy of the resolution adopted by the board authorizing the change. The change of home office takes effect on the 31st day after the date the banking commissioner receives the notice. (d) A relocation of a state trust company's home office may not be made, and another action that would effect an abandonment of the state trust company's initial home office may not be taken, without the prior written approval of the banking commissioner. The state trust company must establish to the satisfaction of the banking commissioner that the abandonment is consistent with the original determination of public convenience and advantage for the establishment of a state trust company at that location.
