The bill would set up a new system for deferred presentment loans, including increasing the maximum rate of interest for lenders operating in Texas, increasing the demand for the license. Additionally, out-of-state usury preemption issues would decline and require an increase in Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner oversight.
The Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner would be required to regulate an additional 600 licensed locations engaged in deferred presentment transactions.
Because of the new licensees and increased regulatory oversight, the agency would require 3 additional Financial Examiner IV FTEs ($160,350 total salary and benefits each year). The agency would also require an additional $45,500 each year for travel and other expenses for these new examiners.
The agency would require an additional $2,500 for 10 administrative hearing cases related to deferred presentment transaction licensees each year and would also require an additional $27,925 for criminal background checks for an estimated 716 individuals.
It is assumed the agency would increase fees to offset any costs associated with implementing the provisions of the bill.
The Office of the Attorney General indicates it could absorb any increase in cost associated with the bill within current resources.
