The Bureau of Loans issued regulations under the Deferred Presentment Services Act to govern joint bank accounts. Each party on a joint account may write checks up to five hundred dollars provided a separate deferred deposit agreement accompanies each check. Licensees are prohibited from requiring joint account holders to take joint or separate loans, ensuring any decision to obtain a separate loan remains voluntary.
