§ 15a. Credit insurance. Voluntary credit life insurance, credit accident and health insurance, involuntary unemployment insurance, credit property insurance, or other credit insurance policies approved or permitted by the Director of Insurance and any charge therefor which is deducted from the loan or paid by the obligor shall comply with the Illinois Insurance Code 1 and all lawful requirements of the Director of Insurance related thereto. When there are 2 or more obligors on the loan contract, only one charge for credit life insurance and credit accident and health insurance may be made and only one of the obligors need be required to be insured, except that joint credit insurance may cover two obligors. Insurance obtained from, by or through a licensee shall be in effect when the loan is transacted. The purchase of such insurance through the licensee or from an agent, broker or insurer specified by the licensee shall not be a condition precedent to the granting of the loan.
