When it may fit

Our assessment of the published programs

  • A potential match for a business seeking SBA-backed fixed-asset, acquisition or expansion financing, or a bank-issued trade letter of credit.

What to weigh carefully

  • SBA program details and eligibility are transaction-specific; published materials defer to the bank for application requirements.
  • Do not treat trade letters of credit as cash proceeds or revolving working capital.

Questions before you accept an offer

  1. Does this request qualify for the SBA 504 structure or another SBA program?
  2. For a letter of credit, what collateral and cash-margin requirements apply?

Ask for written terms. Compare net cash received, total repayment, fees, payment timing and early-payoff costs for the same financing need.

Prepare your comparison

Use the same questions and figures for each offer you receive.
