TITLE 13 - BANKS, BANKING AND FINANCE
CHAPTER 6 - SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATIONS
13-6-204. Reserves.
(a) State savings and loan associations, in addition to the par value of their capital, shall set up and maintain reserves as follows:
(i) Except as provided in W.S. 13-7-102, before the declaration of a dividend for any period an association shall transfer an amount equal to at least five percent (5%) of its net earnings to a separate reserve account which shall be set up and maintained for the sole purpose of absorbing losses until the general reserve is equal to at least twelve percent (12%) of the savings liability. In the event that any credit to the general reserve is made in excess of the minimum five percent (5%) requirement, the dollar amount of the excess may be carried over as a credit toward the minimum requirement of any subsequent period. If the general reserve is not equal to at least twelve percent (12%) of its savings liability, credits, as above provided, shall again be made to the general reserve until it equals at least twelve percent (12%) of its savings liability. The board of directors may make additional transfers to other reserve accounts.
