Records - Confidentiality

A. The following records in the Oklahoma State Banking

Department are designated as public records:

1. All applications for association charters and branches and

supporting information with the exception of personal financial

records of individual applicants;

2. All records introduced at public hearings on association

charter and branch applications;

3. Information disclosing the failure of an association, a

foreign association and their branches in this state and the reasons

therefor;

4. Reports of completed investigations which uncover a shortage

of funds in an association or an out-of-state association and

branches of either, after the reporting of the shortage to proper

authorities by the State Banking Commissioner;

5. Names of all stockholders and officers of associations,

foreign associations, holding companies, and branches of foreign

associations located in this state filed in the office of the

Secretary of State; and

6. Regular financial call reports of associations.

B. All other records in the Department shall be confidential

and not subject to public inspection. However, the Commissioner

may, in the sole discretion of the Commissioner, divulge such

confidential information after receipt of a written request which

shall:

1. Specify the record or records to which access is requested;

and

2. Give the reasons for the request.

Such records may also be produced pursuant to a valid judicial

subpoena or other legal process requiring production, if the

Commissioner determines that the records are relevant to the hearing

or proceeding and that production is in the best interests of

justice. The records may be disclosed only after a determination by

the Commissioner that good cause exists for the disclosure. Either

prior to or at the time of any disclosure, the Commissioner shall

impose such terms and conditions as the Commissioner deems necessary

to protect the confidential nature of the record, the financial

integrity of any institution to which the record relates, and the

legitimate privacy of any individual named in such records.
