Article 15 of North Carolina’s Consumer Finance Act requires licensed lenders to cap installment loans at $15,000. The minimum loan term is 12 months, while the maximum loan term is 96 months. Licensed lenders can levy a non-sufficient funds fee (NSF) of $25 for loans of $2,500 or less or charge a fee of 1% of the amount financed for loans greater than $2,500 – up to a maximum of $40.
Allowable finance charges for loans of $10,000 or less are:
For loans over $10,000, the maximum APR is 18% per year.
Licensed lenders can also levy a delinquency charge – after the loan is at least 10 days past due – $15. If borrowers return the loan proceeds in full within three business days, they will not incur any finance charges.
