Any change of name of a stock financial institution or mutual savings and loan association pursuant to this section shall be effected in accordance with chapter 415. Any change of name shall not affect a financial institution's rights, liabilities or obligations existing prior to the effective date thereof, and no documents of transfer shall be necessary to preserve such rights, liabilities or obligations; provided, however, that the commissioner may require notice to be given to the public and other governmental agencies.
