What’s in it

This bill relates to consumer lending notice provisions. The Iowa consumer credit code contained in Code chapter 537 currently states creditors may only make changes to the terms of an open-end credit account, applying to any balance incurred after the effective date of the change, if the creditor provides to the consumer a written disclosure of the change at least days prior to the effective date of the change. The bill replaces that 60-day notification requirement by incorporating by reference federal regulations governing the disclosure of changes to the terms of an open-end credit account.
