Why is Delaware considered to have a friendly legal environment for corporations? Well, for a lot of reasons.
One reason I will be focusing on in this post is its usury law. More specifically, Delaware has a broad and clear exemption from its usury law for transactions over $100,000.
Many states cap the amount of interest a lender can charge a borrower, thereby limiting the access to loans for many businesses with weaker credit.
In Delaware, a lender may legally charge any rate of interest for a loan over $100,000 which is not secured by a mortgage against a principal residence of the borrower. See Section 2301(c) of the Delaware Commerce and Trade Code.
