Broader loan protections for Oregon borrowers

Oregon’s consumer finance rules cover lenders, agents, brokers, and facilitators handling loans of $50,000 or less for Oregon residents. Borrowers must live or maintain their permanent home in Oregon. Coverage applies when borrowers negotiate, agree to, or sign the loan while physically in Oregon, including online or by phone. It also applies when they pay by debiting an Oregon bank or trust company account, or using a check drawn on one. The law excludes section 521 amendments in the 1980 federal banking deregulation law from consumer finance loans made in Oregon. It preserves lenders’ rights under other lending laws when they comply with those laws. Loans made or payable elsewhere and lawful there generally remain unaffected, except where these Oregon coverage rules apply. These provisions do not set a specific interest rate.

More checks for consumer lender applicants

Consumer loan license applicants, including partnerships and corporations, must provide applicant details, business addresses, and a national licensing registry identifier. They must submit fingerprints for criminal background checks and a summary of personal history and experience. Applicants must also authorize access to credit reports and information about government proceedings. Oregon’s consumer finance director or the licensing registry can require more information.
