My understanding is also that, consistent with the overall intent not to subject commercial firms to financial regulation, section 604 provides that an existing savings and loan holding company with both financial and nonfinancial businesses will cease to be an S&L holding company when it establishes an intermediate holding company under section 626. That company also may have an intermediate holding company under section 167.
