What we don't know
- Whether Bankwell Bank is taking new SBA 7(a) loans today, or how it would treat a business like yours.
- Loans that were never completed. The SBA file lists approvals, and this page leaves out the ones it marks cancelled.
- The borrower, the address and every term beyond rate and term. The public file does not show them.
SBA loans are on record by state only. Amounts are rounded to 2 significant figures and dates to the month. A 6-digit industry code is printed only where the SBA file holds 5 or more loans of the program in that state.
Loans are SBA approvals, net of cancelled approvals.
