1. A. Maximum Insured Public Funds

   Any qualified depository may accept, receive, and hold deposits of public funds without limitation, if the total amount of deposits from each public treasurer does not exceed the applicable federal depository insurance limit.

2. B. Maximum Deposits in Excess of the Federal Insurance Limits For Qualified Utah Depository Institutions

   1. (1) For all qualified Utah depository institutions which receive a qualified opinion issued by an independent certified public accountant upon completion of an annual audit performed in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and for all qualified Utah depository institutions which do not have an audit conducted by an independent certified public accountant, the maximum amount of uninsured public funds which may be held shall be according to the following schedule:

      TABLE 1

      Ratio of Tier one Capital Uninsured Public

      to Total Assets Funds Allotment

      5.0% or more One X Capital

      4.00% to 4.99% .5 X Capital

      Less than 4.00% None

   2. (2) A qualified Utah depository institution which receives an unqualified opinion issued by an independent certified public accountant upon completion of an annual audit performed in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, may submit the audit report within 100 days of the date of the audit to the Department of Financial Institutions for review and the Commissioner of Financial Institutions must authorize that the ratios of Tier one capital to total assets applicable to the institution submitting the audit for determining the maximum amount of uninsured public funds allowed may be according to the following schedule:

      TABLE 2

      Ratio of Tier one Capital Uninsured Public

      to Total Assets Funds Allotment

      5% or more 1.5 X Capital

      4.00% to 4.99% .75 X Capital

      Less than 4.00% None

3. C. A qualified out-of-state depository institution will be treated as a qualified Utah depository subject to all the provisions of this section in determining its uninsured public funds allotment except that the uninsured public funds allotment will be reduced by multiplying by a factor of total deposits outstanding at Utah branches of the institution divided by the total deposits at the institution. Nothing in R628-11 shall prohibit an out-of-state depository institution from qualifying as a permitted out-of-state depository in accordance with R628-10.
