Illinois Lending Laws
Illinois's Predatory Loan Prevention Act (2021) extended a 36% APR cap to all consumer loans statewide, eliminating a payday lending industry that had charged APRs exceeding 400%.
The primary regulator for consumer lending in Illinois is the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. Borrowers with complaints about a lender can file reports directly with that agency or with the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).
