S.D. Admin. R. 12:07:10:11
If the federal discount rate of interest is seven percent or less, the interest rate on a loan shall not be less than the federal discount rate plus two percent per annum. If the federal discount rate of interest is greater than seven percent per annum, the interest rate on the loan may exceed the federal discount interest rate by no more than one-and-one-half percent per annum. The rate on a loan made during one period of time may differ from rates on loans of the same type made during another period of time. The interest rate initially established for a loan shall remain constant during the existence of the loan unless otherwise provided in the loan documentation. The federal discount rate published in the Wall Street Journal on the date the loan is approved shall be used for the purpose of determining the rate of interest to be charged.
