Ok truth in lending requires full discloser and that it be said the promissory note is a security
It sounds like you're concerned about the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and whether it requires full disclosure that a promissory note is a security. TILA aims to promote the informed use of consumer credit by requiring disclosures about its terms and cost.
Here are a few key points about TILA:
- Lenders must provide clear and accurate terms of credit.
- Disclosure includes information about interest rates, monthly payments, and total repayment terms.
- It does not explicitly mandate that a promissory note be called a security.
