Universal Citation: 13 NM Admin Code 13.18.2.20

Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 6, March 26, 2024

A. Joint life rates may not be charged for single life coverage, except that a composite single joint outstanding balance life rate may be used for open-end accounts where more than 50 percent of a creditor's open-end accounts are held jointly. Such rate shall be completed as follows: COB = .84 (PSA) - 1.26 (PJA), where:

(1) COB = composite outstanding balance life rate per $1,000 per month;

(2) PSA = percentage of open-end accounts held by a single person expressed as a decimal fraction (for the first year, use all accounts; for subsequent years, use insured accounts);

(3) PJA = percentage of revolving accounts held jointly expressed as a decimal fraction (for the first year, use all accounts; for subsequent years, use insured accounts).

B. Composite rates shall be recomputed when the percentage of insured account jointly held drops by more than ten percentage points below the percentage used to compute the composite rate. Composite rates shall be discontinued when the percentage of insured accounts jointly held drops below 50 percent. Recomputation or discontinuance shall be effective within six months of the end of the policy year in which the changes requiring such action occurred.
