The most frequent problem encountered in registering as a loan broker
has been the acquisition of the required bond. The bond must be to the State of Illinois in the amount of $25,000.00. It can be acquired through any insurance company authorized to do business in the State of Illinois. Another concern that prompts frequent questions is the disclosure statement required by Section 15-30 of the Act. A disclosure statement must be provided to each borrower that does not qualify for the exemption at Section 15-30.5 of the Act. Examples of the disclosure required can be found at Section 145.303 of the Rules. The specific requirements for the disclosure can be found at Section 15-30 of the Loan Brokers Act of 1995 and the attendant rules which are available at this Web Site.
