What we don't know

  • Whether First Business 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.

Figures come from public records and show the source and date beside them. Public records can be late, incomplete or wrong. A past loan does not mean a lender will make the same kind of loan today. Confirm anything important with the lender.
