What does this do?
This bill would double the maximum loan amounts available through two federal small business loan programs run by the SBA. For the 7(a) program, the government guarantee cap on a single loan would rise from $3,750,000 to $7,500,000, with a related ceiling going from $5,000,000 to $10,000,000. A separate program that helps small businesses buy buildings and equipment would also see its loan caps doubled, up to $10,000,000.
Who does it affect?
Small business owners who need more financing than the current limits allow would be most directly affected. They could potentially qualify for larger government-backed loans than they can under today's rules.
Why does it matter?
If passed, small businesses seeking large loans would have access to higher federally backed amounts than currently available. Businesses whose financing needs exceed today's caps would have more options through these two SBA programs.
