A bank may move its principal office or a branch from one (1) location to another. A
bank, except for a bank that the commissioner may designate through the promulgation of
administrative regulations, shall apply to the commissioner for approval to relocate its
principal office or a branch. Before the commissioner shall approve or disapprove any
change of location, he shall ascertain and determine that the public convenience and
advantage will be served and promoted and that there is a reasonable probability of the
successful operation of the branch or principal office at the new location. The relocation
of a branch within the same vicinity or immediate neighborhood that does not
substantially affect the nature of the business or customers served shall not be considered
a branch closure subject to the provisions of KRS 286.3-180(6).
