We can give them a shot, but most banks will likely need to operate in
the state we are registered in. You can't conduct business in a state,
without a business license and other things. I believe that applies to a
bank as well. Since a bank would be opening an account for a New Mexico
entity. That would constitute them doing business in New Mexico.

It's not the same as a customer being remote, and say the account being
created and existing in Maryland. Otherwise my local bank, or any bank
really could choose to open a remote account.

That said it can't hurt to give them a call. But I doubt we can proceed
with them because of the above.
