The Wyoming Uniform Consumer Credit Code (“UCCC”) is a comprehensive consumer credit law covering all types of consumer credit. Coverage includes consumer credit transactions secured by an interest in land. However, the UCCC does not regulate first lien mortgage transactions which are not precomputed as long as: (i) At the time the loan is made the value of the real property is substantial in relation to the amount of the loan; and, (ii) The loan finance charge does not exceed 18% annual percentage rate (“APR”). Regulations under the UCCC apply only to creditors who regularly extend consumer credit in Wyoming. The UCCC does not regulate mortgage brokers or mortgage servicers, as long as the mortgage broker or mortgage servicer does not conduct business as a creditor as outlined under applicable provisions of the territorial application of the UCCC (W.S. 40-14-120)2.
