JP Morgan Chase may have incorrectly calculated monthly loan payments on commercial loans or promissory notes that it had acquired from Washington Mutual in 2008. Washington Mutual issued promissory notes to consumers seeking a commercial loan in which monthly payments were calculated on the basis of a “360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 days each (30/360 Basis).”
However, since JP Morgan Chase acquired the promissory notes through its acquisition of Washington Mutual, JP Morgan Chase has allegedly been incorrectly calculating payments using the basis of the “actual number of days elapsed for any whole or partial month in which interest is being calculated and on the basis of a 360-day year (Actual/360 Basis).”
The Actual/360 method yields a larger monthly payment for the loan recipient compared to the 30/360 method. As a result, JP Morgan Chase may have overcharged its customers and possibly violated several business laws.
