N.J. Admin. Code § 3:21-4.1 - Merger standards

(a) In approving a certificate and plan of merger under N.J.S.A. 17:13-110, the Commissioner of Banking and Insurance shall make the following determinations:

1. The continuing credit union has a high likelihood of operating in a safe and sound manner following the merger;

2. The management of the continuing credit union has sufficient expertise to operate the credit union following the merger;

3. In the case of a merger involving a group or multi-group credit union and a community credit union, the continuing credit union has designated whether the group or multi-group credit charter shall survive as the operating charter, or whether the community charter shall survive as the operating charter; and

4. In the case of a merger involving a community credit union, the community does not exceed a well-defined neighborhood, local community or rural district which is interpreted as not exceeding what would be permitted under the Community Charter Requirements of the National Credit Union Administration.
