What we don't know

  • Whether a listed lender is lending today, or on what terms.
  • How much any of them lent under the program. The list is membership, not volume.
  • Lenders added to or taken off the list since the date above.

The order is by name. Being on a list is membership: it is not a count of loans, a rating or a statement that a lender is lending today.

A lender on the agency's list that this site could not tie to one public record is left out, so the count here can be lower than the agency's own.

Source and date appear beside each figure. Banks report balances, not loans made. Loans made come only from HMDA and SBA files. We do not audit filings and can make errors joining them. Report a problem

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.
