Tennessee lenders face a 36% loan cap

Tennessee industrial loan and thrift companies cannot charge an effective yearly rate above 36% on loans financing at least $100. The law also removes two separate rate rules. It raises the percentage in Tennessee Code § 45-5-403(b)(1) from 10% to 12.5%, but the supplied text does not explain what that percentage measures. These changes apply to contracts or agreements entered into, amended, or renewed on or after July 1, 2025. The supplied text does not establish how much an individual borrower's costs change.
