Where this section sits in the code
- AR Code
- Title 23
- Chapter 101
(a) Premiums for creditor-placed insurance coverage may be calculated based on: (1) An amount not exceeding the net debt even though the coverage may limit the insurer's liability to the net debt, actual cash value, or cost of repair; or (2) Other premium calculation methods that more closely reflect the exposure of each item insured and approximate the premium calculation method of the coverage required by the credit agreement. (b) (1) An insurer shall not write creditor-placed insurance for which the premium rate differs from that determined by the schedules of the insurer on file with the Insurance Commissioner. (2) The premium or amount charged to the debtor for creditor-placed insurance shall not exceed the premiums charged by the insurer, computed at the time the charge to the debtor is determined. (c) A method of billing insurance charges to the debtor on closed-end credit transactions that creates a balloon payment at the end of the credit transaction or extends the credit transaction's maturity date is prohibited unless specifically disclosed at the time of the origination of the credit agreement and specifically agreed to by the debtor. Acts 1997, No. 930, § 5.
