Delaware authorizes participation in multi-state automated licensing system

Licensing State Issues State Legislation Mortgages

On June 27, the Delaware Governor signed HB 199, which, among other provisions, authorizes the Delaware State Bank Commissioner to participate in a multi-state automated licensing system that will assist in the facilitation of the application and licensing process for mortgage loan brokers, licensed lenders, mortgage loan originators, money transmitters, check cashers, and motor vehicle sales finance companies. The new legislation also permits the State Bank Commissioner to share information collected and maintained with other participating states “for the purpose of licensing, regulating, or supervising that same applicant or licensee under a statute similar to this chapter, if that state could have obtained that same information directly from the applicant or licensee under its own law.” The amendments become effective immediately.
