(1) In lieu of the interest and charges in Section 75-17-21, on loans of Five Thousand One Hundred Dollars ($5,100.00) or less, a licensee may contract and charge a monthly finance charge not to exceed an annual percentage rate, calculated according to the actuarial method, of fifty-nine percent (59%) per annum on the unpaid balance of the amount financed.

(2) Beginning with calendar year 2024 and for each subsequent calendar year, on or before July 1 of the following year, the Mississippi Department of Banking and Consumer Finance will issue a memo authorizing a new maximum loan size permitted under this section.
