LB 836 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Change and eliminate provisions relating to charges for examination of financial institutions, levying assessments, fees, and costs on financial entities, and transfers from a fund

LB 836 amends Nebraska's banking laws to adjust how the state charges for examinations of financial institutions and calculates annual assessments. It affects banks, credit unions, trust companies, savings institutions, and digital asset depositories operating in Nebraska, requiring them to pay fees based on factors like asset size, loan volume, or transaction activity. The bill harmonizes existing fee structures by revising sections 8-601, 8-603, and 8-606 to standardize assessment calculations and clarify charges for electronic data processing center examinations. These changes aim to align fee collection with oversight costs while maintaining existing assessment frameworks.
