1. If the Commissioner finds that any of the factors set forth in NRS 666A.350 are true with respect to any foreign bank which is licensed to maintain a state branch or agency and that it is necessary for the protection of the interests of creditors of the foreign bank’s business in this state or, in any case, for the protection of the public interest that he immediately suspend or revoke the license of the foreign bank, he may issue an order suspending or revoking the license of the foreign bank.
