Illinois Code § 7-25

§ 7-25.

Risk sharing. (a) An EISA provider may not contract for EISA terms that would result in a consumer having income that is less than or equal to 450% of the federal poverty guidelines for a single person for the EISA duration being required to make a stream of EISA payments that would yield an effective APR greater than 8.5%, or the high yield of the 10-year United States Constant Maturity Treasury Notes auctioned at the final auction held before the current calendar year in which an EISA offering is made plus 4.5%, whichever is greater. (b) An EISA provider shall calculate the effective APR in subsection (a) by determining the federal poverty guidelines at the time the consumer's EISA is originated and assuming such amount is fixed through the EISA duration. (c) For the purposes of determining EISA duration in this Section, an EISA provider shall assume the EISA duration started after a period equal to the expected length of the program for which a consumer is enrolling. (d) If there is a discrepancy between the effective annual percentage rate as calculated in this Section and the maximum effective annual percentage rate as calculated in Section 7-15, the lower effective annual percentage rate shall apply in this Section 7-25.
