No such bank, trust company, private banker, national bank or banking corporation may be a depositary of any such reserves unless it shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least

(1) One million dollars, if located in a borough in this state which has a population of one million five hundred thousand or over;

No bank, trust company, private banker or national bank located in a borough having a population of one million five hundred thousand or over which does not have a combined capital and surplus of at least two million dollars, may be a depositary for such reserves unless it shall have a combined capital and surplus greater than the combined capital and surplus of the bank, trust company, industrial bank, foreign banking corporation authorized to maintain a branch or branches in this state or private banker depositing such reserves.
