Finance Lender License Bond

In general, any person engaging in the business of a finance lender or finance broker is required to obtain a California Finance Lenders License. It should be noted that the California Finance Lenders Law contains a number of exemptions for persons licensed by other regulatory agencies. A finance broker licensed under the California Finance Lenders Law may only broker loans to lenders licensed as finance lenders. The license does not provide the broker with the authority to broker loans to and collect brokerage commissions from other types of lenders such as credit unions and banks.
