Cal. Code Regs. tit. 10 § 80.3

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 52, December 27, 2024
Section 80.3 - Unsafe and Unsound Acts
(a) Any act which is designated in this Subchapter as an "unsafe and unsound act" is an act which, in the usual or typical circumstances encountered, constitutes an unsafe and unsound act within the meaning of the Money Transmission Act. However, it is impossible to foresee or to provide for all the varying circumstances which may arise in a particular case. Also, the acts designated in this Subchapter as "unsafe and unsound acts" are not intended to constitute a complete compilation of all the acts which constitute unsafe or unsound acts within the meaning of the Money Transmission Act. Therefore, the Commissioner may, if and when warranted in any particular case, upon application or on the Commissioner's own initiative, decide that in such case an act which is designated in this Subchapter as an "unsafe and unsound act" does not constitute an unsafe or unsound act within the meaning of the Money Transmission Act. Also, the Commissioner may decide that an act which is not designated in this Subchapter as an "unsafe and unsound act" constitutes an unsafe or unsound act within the meaning of the Money Transmission Act.
(b) Subject to the qualifications set forth in Subdivision (a) of this Section, whenever a licensee commits any act which is designated in this Subchapter as an "unsafe and unsound act," such licensee shall be deemed:
(1) To be transacting and conducting its business in an unsafe and unsound manner within the meaning of the Money Transmission Act; and
(2) If and to the extent that such act affects the condition of the licensee, to be in an unsafe and unsound condition within the meaning of the Money Transmission Act.
