222.0407(1) (1) In general. A universal bank may hold or purchase not more than 10 percent of its capital stock, notes, or debentures, except as provided in sub. (2) or (3) .
222.0407(2) (2) Division approval. A universal bank may hold or purchase more than 10 percent of its capital stock, notes, or debentures, if approved by the division.
222.0407(3) (3) Additional authority. A universal bank may hold or purchase more than 10 percent of its capital stock, notes, or debentures if the purchase is necessary to prevent loss upon a debt previously contracted in good faith. Stock, notes, or debentures held or purchased under this subsection may not be held by the universal bank for more than 6 months if the stock, notes, or debentures can be sold for the amount of the claim of the universal bank against the holder of the debt previously contracted. The universal bank shall either sell the stock, notes, or debentures within 12 months of acquisition under this subsection or shall cancel the stock, notes, or debentures. Cancellation of the stock, notes, or debentures reduces the amount of the universal bank’s capital stock, notes, or debentures. If the reduction reduces the universal bank’s capital below the minimum level required by the division, the universal bank shall increase its capital to the amount required by the division.
222.0407(4) (4) Loans secured by capital, surplus, or deposits. A universal bank may not loan any part of its capital, surplus, or deposits on its own capital stock, notes, or debentures as collateral security, except that a universal bank may make a loan secured by its own capital stock, notes, or debentures to the same extent that the universal bank may make a loan secured by the capital stock, notes, and debentures of a holding company for the universal bank.
