FISCAL IMPACT - Small Business

This proposal could affect small businesses to the extent that refunds paid or received as a result of prepayments of certain financing agreements either increase or decrease.

DESCRIPTION

The proposal would require that refunds owed as a result of prepayment of certain financing agreements be calculated using the actuarial method and that no more interest be retained by the lender than is actually earned.

This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
