Title 33, Chapter 3, Section 24
( 33-3-24)
(a) No institution included in the Farm Credit System as set forth
and identified in 12 U.S.C.A., Section 2002 (Pub. Law 92-181, Sec.
1.2, Dec. 10, 1971, 85 Stat. 583), any subsidiary or affiliate of
such institution doing business in this state, any officer or
employee of any institution included in the Farm Credit System, or
any subsidiary or affiliate of any institution may directly or
indirectly be licensed to sell or solicit any type of insurance,
except the following: (1) Credit life and accident and health in an amount appropriate
to insure repayment of the loan; (2) Crop hail, hail, or wind damage to crops; or (3) Insurance against loss of any collateral securing a loan
extended by an affiliate bank or association of the Farm Credit
System for the full value of such collateral. The right to place
collateral insurance, however, shall continue only so long as the
underlying loan remains outstanding or until the expiration of the
policy, but in no event longer than 12 months from the last day
the loan was outstanding. (b) For purposes of this Code section, "collateral securing a loan"
shall include only that property which is subject to the formal
security interest granted in connection with the secured loan and
duly filed and recorded in the county where the debtor resides;
provided, however, "collateral securing a loan" shall not include
any property acquired by the debtor after the date the underlying
loan was made unless the secured party shall make an advance to the
debtor or otherwise give new value which is to be secured in whole
or in part by after-acquired property. (c) For the purposes of this Code section, institutions constituting
the Farm Credit System shall include the federal land banks, the
federal land bank associations, the federal intermediate credit
banks, the production credit associations, the banks for
cooperatives, and such other institutions as may be made part of the
system, all of which are chartered by and subject to the supervision
of the Farm Credit Administration; provided, however, that the types
of insurance described in paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) of subsection
(a) of this Code section may only be transacted, sold, or solicited
for the purposes of protecting loans made for agricultural purposes
to farmers by an institution of the Farm Credit System or any
subsidiary or affiliate thereof doing business in this state. (d) Any person holding a license to sell or solicit insurance on
April 8, 1977, and disqualified under the terms of subsection (a) of
this Code section upon termination of his association as an employee
or officer, or both, of any Farm Credit System institution or
affiliate or subsidiary thereof shall have his license reissued upon
request without the necessity of taking or passing any examination.
Applications shall be made within 60 days from the date of
termination of such employment. |
