Adopted Rules CR-103
Adopted Rules (PDF)
Effective 08/04/10
CR-103E (PDF)

Some licensees formerly operating under chapter 31.45 (the payday lending law) begun offering products under the Consumer Loan Act that mirror small loans, but with unconscionable terms that fail to provide the protections of the payday lending law. This emergency rule serves as a stopgap to allow DFI to protect the welfare of the public while seeking a more permanent solution through rulemaking or the legislature.
