KANSAS COMMENT, 2000
In general, this article applies to nearly all forms of insurance provided in connection with a consumer credit transaction. See the Kansas comment to the next section. Lenders engaged in premium financing are exempted from the U3C by K.S.A. 16a-1-202(5); premium financing is controlled by the Kansas insurance premium financing act (K.S.A. 40-2601 et seq). For example, rate ceilings on insurance premium finance transactions will continue to be governed by K.S.A. 40-2610 rather than by the ceilings established for other consumer credit transactions covered by the U3C. By subsection (2), however, a single provision of this article is made applicable to lenders engaged in insurance premiums financing; the borrower must be forewarned of cancellation of the financed insurance by the lender (see K.S.A. 16a-4-304). Nothing else in this article affects the practices of a lender in that business.
