The U.S. Small Business Administration is committed to furthering the growth and development of small businesses. One of the ways it does this is by guaranteeing loans to small businesses made through lending partners nationwide. Regions Bank is both an SBA Preferred Lender and one of America’s most experienced SBA lenders. The SBA does not make loans directly to small businesses. Rather, it sets guidelines for loans, which are made by lending partners nationwide, including banks and economic development organizations. For the SBA(7)a and SBA Express loans, the SBA guarantees a percentage of the loan, minimizing risk to the lending partners and increasing the possibility that small businesses will receive the funds they need. Please contact a Regions banker to discuss qualification criteria, potential fees, and whether an SBA loan can fit your business needs. All loans and lines of credit are subject to credit approval.
