What we don't know

  • Whether any of these lenders is taking new SBA loans today, or how it would treat a business like yours.
  • Loans that were never completed. The SBA file lists approvals, and these pages leave out the ones it marks cancelled.
  • The borrower, the address and every term beyond rate and term. The public file does not show them.

Every loan counted here carried one of these NAICS codes in the SBA file, and the state of the loan is the state of the business. Loans are approvals, net of cancelled approvals. 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.
