SUMMARY

The purpose of this enactment is to prevent the merger of banks with each other or with federally incorporated bodies to create one bank, unless the Superintendent of Financial Institutions advises the Minister of Finance that the merger is necessary to prevent an insolvency or informs the Minister that none of the applicants wishing to merge is about to become insolvent, in which case the merger would have to be approved by a resolution of the Senate and House of Commons.
