Fiscal Analysis
The bill would create a 36% maximum annual percentage rate for any loan that a credit access business assists a consumer in obtaining.
Methodology
The Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner (OCCC) is a self-directed, semi-independent state entity and does not receive appropriated funds. The OCCC is responsible for funding all direct and indirect operational costs and sets the amount of fees, penalties, charges, and revenues required to cover these costs.
The OCCC anticipates that the bill would reduce credit access business by 75%, therefore the agency would need to eliminate 75% of the 8 Financial Examiners that help with licensing exams for this type of business. This would total a decrease of 6 FTEs annually and the savings estimated above; it is assumed there would be a reduction in revenue due to these operational savings.
Technology
No fiscal implication to technology is anticipated.
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
