Banks Blamed For Loan Bill Defeat
A Missouri House defeat of a proposed loan rate bill sparked blame from lawmakers and banking critics. The measure would raise maximum small loan rates and include consumer protections such as two grace periods and overdue-notice requirements, while preserving existing higher rates on larger loans. Opponents argued the higher rate would legalize loan sharking and hurt consumers, as backers contended the bill balanced protections with fair access to credit.
