SBA 7(a) is the main SBA loan program for small businesses. The SBA guarantees part of each loan and the lender decides who gets one.

SBA figures are approvals, shown net of cancelled loans where the column says so. SBA has not reviewed or endorsed this site.

Each lender is counted only where the public file places the loan. Lenders that merged or stopped filing are left out.

SBA does not require you to use an agent or broker for a loan application. SBA has not reviewed or endorsed this site.

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.
