How Do Small-Dollar, Nonbank Loans Work?
by Thomas Miller
Millions of Americans rely on small-dollar, non-bank-supplied credit products: payday, pawn, vehicle title, and personal installment loans from finance companies. Many features of these vital products, however, are not well understood. This book contains explanations of how these loans work, what features they share, and how they differ. Readers seeking to understand these products might learn something surprising. For example,
Pawn transactions are not loans in the traditional sense.
Interest rate caps influence the size of installment loans.
The length of a payday loan affects its annualized interest rate.
This objective guide is a must-read resource for
legislators, regulators, journalists, and anyone else who cares about access to, and regulation of, small-dollar credit.
