Text of the Proposed Rule
SECTION 1. Section DFI-Bkg 8.04 is repealed.
Reference to Statutory Authority and Analysis Prepared by Department of Financial Institutions, Division of Banking
Analysis: To repeal s. DFI-Bkg 8.04. Statutory authority: Sections 220.02 (2) and 227.11 (2), Stats. Summary: Section DFI-Bkg 8.04 requires that the name and location of a bank home office shall be stated on all bank checks, and that the name of a bank branch may be stated on bank checks. State law on negotiable instruments, Uniform Commercial Code s. 403.104, Stats., does not require this information. Federal law on presentment and issuance of checks, 12 CFR 229.36, does not require this information. However, practically a check, both as a negotiable instrument and in the course of presentment, will contain bank identification information. Section DFI-Bkg 8.04 is, therefore, both unnecessary and redundant. Agency person to be contacted for substantive questions and responsible for agency's internal processing: Mark Schlei, Deputy General Counsel, Department of Financial Institutions, Office of the Secretary, tel. (608) 267-1705.
Fiscal Estimate
There is no state fiscal effect, and there are no local government costs. No funding sources or ch. 20 appropriations are affected. There are no long-range fiscal implications.
Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis:
The proposed rule will not have an effect on small businesses.
