Back To The Parent: Holding Company Liability For Subsidiary Banks - A Discussion Of The Net Worth Maintenance Agreement, The Source Of Stength Doctrine, And The Prompt Corrective Action Provision, Cassandra Jones Havard Apr 1995

Back To The Parent: Holding Company Liability For Subsidiary Banks - A Discussion Of The Net Worth Maintenance Agreement, The Source Of Stength Doctrine, And The Prompt Corrective Action Provision, Cassandra Jones Havard

Cardozo Law Review

The unprecedented number of bank failures in the past several years has spawned a crisis in the industry and fueled an extensive debate about how federal regulators can effectively make banks more responsible for guaranteeing the soundness of their operations. For the federal regulators most involved-the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), and the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") -Congress is directing the effort to enhance the banks' guarantees of self-policing. Congress's basic response to the crisis has been to heighten the minimum capital levels the banks must maintain to avoid direct corrective intervention by the federal …


Bank Powers To Sell Annuities, Tamar Frankel Jan 1993

Bank Powers To Sell Annuities, Tamar Frankel

Faculty Scholarship

The conflict over turf between the banking industry and the insurance agents has heated up again. In the 1993 case Variable Annuity Life Ins. Co. v. Clarke, 1 the Fifth Circuit held banks have no power to sell fixed annuities issued by insurance companies in cities with more than 5,000 inhabitants. On June 6, 1994, the Supreme Court granted certiorari to review the decision. 3 Both the Clinton Administration and members of Congress are considering steps toward resolving this issue. Concerned that the flight of high-quality borrowers from the banking system has rendered bank lending increasingly risky, the Comptroller of …

Venezuela Revisited: Foreign Investment, Technology, And Related Issues, Robert J. Radway, Franklin T. Hoet-Linares Jan 1982

Venezuela Revisited: Foreign Investment, Technology, And Related Issues, Robert J. Radway, Franklin T. Hoet-Linares

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

A brief history of foreign investment in Venezuela is necessary to understand recent changes in Venezuelan foreign investment policy. The development of selected industrial sectors, including principally petroleum and mining, but also agriculture, electric power, manufacturing, banking, and insurance, has played a significant role in shaping Venezuelan foreign investment policy. The laws, policies, and their application can then be reviewed in practical terms to provide the practitioner with an understanding of the stated objectives of the host government within the context of Third World movements toward greater control over economic activities.

Recent Legislation, J. Rodney Johnson

University of Richmond Law Review

The 1972 session of the General Assembly was especially active in the areas of wills, trusts, and estates. Much of this legislation deals with fine points not affecting the average lawyer in his practice. However, the following items of legislation should be of general interest to the attorney whose practice involves probate work or estate planning, even though he does not hold himself out as a specialist in these areas.

The Expanding Jurisdiction Of The Securities And Exchange Commission: Variable Annuities And Bank Collective Investment Funds, John W. Erickson Jun 1964

The Expanding Jurisdiction Of The Securities And Exchange Commission: Variable Annuities And Bank Collective Investment Funds, John W. Erickson

Michigan Law Review

The Securities and Exchange Commission is presently attempting to assert jurisdiction over certain aspects of two industries traditionally exempt from federal securities regulation-insurance and banking. The SEC claims that two recently developed investment vehicles-variable annuities in the insurance field and pooled funds of managing agency accounts in the banking field-are virtually the same as mutual funds, which are subject to SEC regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940. (A mutual fund is essentially a fund (usually in corporate form), the participants' contributions to which are collectively invested in a portfolio of securities, each participation representing a pro rata interest …


Foreign Investment Protection: A Reasoned Approach, Earl Snyder Apr 1963

Foreign Investment Protection: A Reasoned Approach, Earl Snyder

Michigan Law Review

The main purpose in protecting private foreign investment is to encourage capital to move to newly developing nations in spite of serious, existing non-business risks. These risks are (1) the political risk (outright and "creeping" expropriation), (2) the transfer risk ( currency controls and inconvertibility of funds), and (3) the calamity risk (insurrection, revolution, war, etc.). But why encourage this? Why should an affluent, powerful nation seek, in effect, to transport overseas some of its affluence and power? Why--in the case of the United States-should encouragement be given to that which may, according to some, tend to tip still more …

The note was then transferred to plaintiff for collection.

Trusts - Life Insurance Trusts - Contingent Unfunded Life Insurance Trust As Testamentary Disposition, Jerome K. Walsh Jr.

Michigan Law Review

Settlor named defendant bank beneficiary of eight insurance policies on his life. At the same time he entered into a trust agreement with the bank under which the bank was to hold the policies until the death of the settlor and, upon his death, collect the proceeds and distribute them according to one of two alternate methods of distribution. If his wife elected to reject the provisions made for her in his will and insisted on her statutory share of his estate, then the insurance proceeds were to be divided info four equal parts and paid to his four daughters. …

International Law - Recognition Of Soviet Russia - Extraterritorial Effect Of Decrees Of Confiscation And Nationalization

Michigan Law Review

The Moscow Fire Insurance Company, the Northern Insurance Company of Moscow, and the First Russian Insurance Company were incorporated in Russia under the Czarist regime, and given authority to do business in New York. Deposits were made in New York for the benefit of policy holders and creditors in this country. Subsequent to the revolution in Russia and the Soviet decrees nationalizing all Russian corporations and confiscating without compensation such corporations' assets in Russia and abroad, these deposits were turned over to the New York State Insurance Commissioner for liquidation. Large sums remained after domestic claims were satisfied and the …

The Renvoi Theory Repudiated as a Test for Determining the Negotiability of a Note - A recent case decided by the Supreme Court of Oklahoma (Bell v. Riggs, 127 Pac. 427) involving, among others, a question as to what law governs the negotiability of a note made in one State and payable in another, though of little intrinsic value so far as that point is concerned, is of some interest because the attorney for the holder of the note made a curious attempt to adapt the renvoi theory to his case. The term renvoi is used as a convenient descriptive …
