116J.8762 COMMISSIONER; DUTIES.

Subdivision 1.Duties.

The commissioner must:

(1) with respect to loans:

(i) market the capital access program to businesses and other persons in the state in cooperation with financial institutions and statewide associations representing financial institutions;

(ii) establish a reservation or allocation system so that lenders may reserve an allocation of funds in the account before or after the lender enters into a loan agreement or contract with a borrower; and

(iii) develop the program, in cooperation with financial institutions and statewide associations representing financial institutions, so that the degree of flexibility for the commissioner and the participating lenders is maximized and the state oversight of individual loans is minimized, and the fiscal integrity of the program is maintained; and

(2) with respect to equity investments:

(i) market the program to businesses and community development venture capital funds; and

(ii) enter into appropriate contracts and agreements with community development venture capital funds.

Subd. 2.Interests of commissioner.

Except upon the exercise of the commissioner's right of subrogation under section 116J.8767, the commissioner has no legal or equitable interest in any collateral, security, or other right of recovery in connection with any loan enrolled in the program, and the commissioner's consent is not necessary for any amendment to the lender's loan documents.
