HI SB2761

Restructures regulatory fees for financial institutions by replacing hourly examination fees with a tiered annual fee system based on asset size, ranging from $5,000 for institutions with $500,000-$10,000,000 in assets to $15,000 for those with $5,000,000,000 or more.

Establishes specific nonrefundable application and approval fees for various financial institution activities, including $10,000 for organizing new banks/savings institutions, $5,000 for conversions, and $1,000-$5,000 for various operational approvals such as mergers, branches, and specialized activities.

Consolidates all fee structures into section 412:2-105 instead of having fees scattered across multiple statutes and rule-making authority, creating a unified fee schedule.

Adds $250 per day administrative fine for financial institutions that fail to pay required fees within 30 days of billing.

Effective date is July 1, 3000 (appears to be a typographical error in the legislation).
