§80b–10a — Title 15 Commerce and Trade | U.S. Code

Summary

A federal banking agency must give the Commission (the SEC) any exam results, reports, records, or other information it has about investment-advising work done by a bank holding company, a savings and loan holding company, a bank, or a clearly separate department or division of a bank when the Commission asks. The Commission must also give the agency the same kinds of information when it asks about any such firm that is registered under section 80b–3. The Commission and the banking agencies do not have to disclose information they get from each other to others, but they still must provide it to Congress, to other federal departments or agencies or self-regulatory organizations when needed for their official duties, and when a U.S. court orders it in cases brought by the United States, the Commission, or the agencies. This sharing does not limit any other legal powers the banking agency has, and “appropriate Federal banking agency” means what section 1813 of title 12 says.

(i)bank holding company or savings and loan holding company;

(ii)bank; or

(iii)separately identifiable department or division of a bank,

(B)in the case of a bank holding company or savings and loan holding company or bank that has a subsidiary or a separately identifiable department or division registered under that section, with respect to the investment advisory activities of such bank or bank holding company or savings and loan holding company.

(3)Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Commission and the appropriate Federal banking agencies shall not be compelled to disclose any information provided under paragraph (1) or (2). Nothing in this paragraph shall authorize the Commission or such agencies to withhold information from Congress, or prevent the Commission or such agencies from complying with a request for information from any other Federal department or agency or any self-regulatory organization requesting the information for purposes within the scope of its jurisdiction, or complying with an order of a court of the United States in an action brought by the United States, the Commission, or such agencies. For purposes of section 552 of title 5, this paragraph shall be considered a statute described in subsection (b)(3)(B) of such section 552.

(b)Nothing in this section shall limit in any respect the authority of the appropriate Federal banking agency with respect to such bank holding company or savings and loan holding company (or affiliates or subsidiaries thereof), bank, or subsidiary, department, or division or a bank under any other provision of law.

(c)For purposes of this section, the term “appropriate Federal banking agency” shall have the same meaning as given in section 1813 of title 12.
