What is the primary focus of the TILA regulation?

The primary focus of the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) regulation is to ensure fair disclosure for credit terms. TILA mandates that lenders provide clear and transparent information about credit costs and terms to borrowers before they enter into a loan agreement. This includes details on interest rates, annual percentage rates (APRs), and other fees associated with the loan. The goal of TILA is to promote informed decision-making by consumers, enabling them to compare different credit offers and understand the true cost of borrowing. By requiring lenders to disclose this essential information, TILA protects consumers against deceptive lending practices and helps facilitate a fair lending marketplace.
