§ 9-534 — Same; application; approval; factors

In determining whether to approve an application filed pursuant to K.S.A. 9-532, and amendments thereto, the commissioner shall consider the following factors:
(a) Whether the subsidiary banks of the applicant are operated in a safe, sound and prudent manner.
(b) Whether the subsidiary banks of the applicant have provided adequate and appropriate services to their communities, including services contemplated by 12 U.S.C. § 2901 et seq.
(c) Whether the applicant proposes to provide adequate and appropriate services, including services contemplated by 12 U.S.C. § 2901 et seq., in the communities served by the Kansas state chartered bank or by the Kansas bank subsidiaries of the bank holding company that has an ownership interest in a Kansas state chartered bank.
(d) Whether the proposed acquisition will result in a Kansas state chartered bank or bank holding company that has an ownership interest in a Kansas state chartered bank that has adequate capital and good earnings prospects.
(e) Whether the financial condition of the applicant or any of the applicant's subsidiary banks would jeopardize the financial stability of the Kansas state chartered bank or bank holding company that has an ownership interest in a Kansas state chartered bank which is the subject of the application.
(f) Whether the competence, experience and integrity of the managerial resources of the applicant or any proposed management personnel of any Kansas state chartered bank or any Kansas bank subsidiaries of the bank holding company that has an ownership interest in a Kansas state chartered bank indicates that to permit such person to control a bank would not be in the interest of the depositors of a bank or in the interest of the public.
