2012 Wyoming Statutes
TITLE 40 - TRADE AND COMMERCE
CHAPTER 14 - WYOMING UNIFORM CONSUMER CREDIT CODE
40-14-407. Maximum charge by creditor for insurance.


WY Stat § 40-14-407 (through 2012) What's This?

(a) Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, if a creditor contracts for or receives a separate charge for insurance, the amount charged to the debtor for the insurance may not exceed the premium to be charged by the insurer, as computed at the time the charge to the debtor is determined, conforming to any rate filings required by law and made by the insurer with the commissioner of insurance.

(b) A creditor who provides consumer credit insurance in relation to a revolving charge account (W.S. 40-14-208) or revolving loan account (W.S. 40-14-308) may calculate the charge to the debtor in each billing cycle by applying the current premium rate to:

(i) The average daily unpaid balance of the debt in the cycle;

(ii) The unpaid balance of the debt or a median amount within a specified range of unpaid balances of debt on approximately the same day of the cycle. The day of the cycle need not be the day used in calculating the credit service charge (W.S. 40-14-218) or loan finance charge (W.S. 40-14-310 and 40-14-348), but the specified range shall be the range used for that purpose; or

(iii) The unpaid balances of principal calculated according to the actuarial method.
