The Resolution Committee/Interim Board:

On March 21st 2009, the Financial Supervisory Authority assumed the powers of a shareholders’ meeting of SPRON, dismissed the Board and appointed a Resolution Committee. The FSA also assigned New Kaupthing Bank the depository obligations of SPRON, see here. Under Act no. 44/2009 that amended Act no. 161/2002 on Financial institutions, the Resolution Committee became an Interim Board, which had the same obligations as a Resolution Committee.

Yfirlýsing um réttindi lántaka til að óska eftir öðrum úrræðum síðar

10.11.2009

Slitastjórn SPRON lýsir því yfir að þeir viðskiptavinir bankans sem undirrita skilmálabreytingar húsnæðislána, t.d. vegna greiðslujöfnunar og frystingar, fyrirgeri ekki réttindum sínum til að óska eftir öðrum úrræðum síðar, þ.e. þeim sem bjóðast í framtíðinni, enda uppfylli þeir skilyrði fyrir nýtingu úrræðanna.  Sama gildir um önnur réttindi sem neytendur kunna að njóta samkvæmt lögum.
