In the cases provided for in Articles L. 511-15 and L. 511-15-1, the funds repayable from the public referred to in Article L. 312-2 and the other repayable funds are repaid by the credit institution or finance company on their due date or, if this due date is after expiry of the period referred to in III of Article L. 511-15 or in the third paragraph of Article L. 511-15-1, on the date set by the Autorité de contrôle prudentiel et de résolution or by the European Central Bank. At the end of this period, the company loses the status of credit institution or finance company, as applicable, and must have changed its corporate name. Banking transactions other than the receipt of repayable funds from the public and payment services that the credit institution or finance company has entered into or undertaken to enter into prior to the decision to withdraw authorisation may be completed.
Notwithstanding the provisions of 4° and 5° of article 1844-7 of the French Civil Code, the early dissolution of a credit institution or finance company may only be ordered after withdrawal of its authorisation by the Autorité de contrôle prudentiel et de résolution or by the European Central Bank. Notwithstanding articles L. 123-1 and L. 237-3 of the French Commercial Code, the publication and amending entry in the Trade and Companies Register concerning the dissolution must mention the date of the decision to withdraw authorisation by the Autorité de contrôle prudentiel et de résolution or the European Central Bank. Until it has been wound up, the credit institution or finance company remains subject to the supervisory powers and, where applicable, the sanctions of the Autorité de contrôle prudentiel et de résolution or the European Central Bank. It may not refer to its status as a credit institution or finance company without specifying that it is being wound up.
