(2) He or she shall proceed to collect all debts, dues and claims belonging to the savings bank. (3) He or she shall file with the Secretary a copy of each report that he or she makes to the court, together with such other reports and records as the Secretary may require. (4) He or she shall have authority to sue and defend in his or her own name with respect to the affairs, assets, claims, debts, and choses in action of the savings bank. (5) He or she shall have authority, and it shall be his or her duty, to surrender to the customers of such savings bank their private papers and valuables left with the savings bank for safekeeping, upon satisfactory proof of ownership. (6) He or she shall have authority to redeem or take down collateral hypothecated by the savings bank to secure its notes or other evidence of indebtedness whenever the Secretary deems it to the best interest of the creditors of the savings bank to do so. (7) Whenever he or she finds it necessary in his or her opinion to use and employ money of the savings bank, in order to protect fully and benefit the savings bank, by the purchase or redemption of any property, real or personal, in which the savings bank may have any rights by reason of any bond, mortgage, assignment, or other claim thereto, he or she may certify the facts together with his or her opinions as to the value of the property involved, and the value of the equity the savings bank may have in the property to the Secretary, together with a request for the right and authority to use and employ so much of the money of the savings bank as may be necessary to purchase the property, or to redeem the same from a sale if there was a sale, and if the request is granted, the receiver may use so much of the money of the savings bank as the Secretary may have authorized to purchase the property at such sale. (8) He or she shall deposit daily all monies collected by him or her in any savings bank selected by the Secretary, who may require of (and the savings bank so selected may furnish) such depository satisfactory securities or satisfactory surety bond for the safekeeping and prompt payment of the money so deposited. The deposits shall be made in the name of the Secretary in trust for the savings bank and be subject to withdrawal upon his or her order or upon the order of such persons as the Secretary may designate. Such monies may be deposited without interest, unless otherwise agreed. However, if any interest was paid by such depository, it shall accrue to the benefit of the particular trust to which the deposit belongs. (9) He or she shall do things and take such steps from time to time under the direction and approval of the Secretary as may reasonably appear to be necessary to conserve the savings bank's assets and secure the best interests of the creditors of the savings bank. (10) He or she shall record any judgment of dissolution entered in a dissolution proceeding and thereupon deliver to the Secretary a certified copy thereof, together with all books of accounts and ledgers of the savings bank for preservation.
