The board of retirement or the board of investments, as applicable, may obtain a loan and pledge a portion of the assets of the retirement fund as security for the repayment of the loan if the board finds all of the following:
(a) An emergency exists affecting the national banking system or financial markets.
(b) The emergency prevents the association from readily accessing its funds.
(c) The loan is necessary to promptly deliver benefits when due.
The assets of the retirement fund pledged as security for the loan shall be subject to execution and other processes of the court only in connection with a proceeding to enforce the loan.
