OCA Wants to Close America’s $100 Billion Small Business Credit GapA National ProblemThe U.S. is experiencing a $100 billion small business credit gap.Since the recession, small business lending and small dollar lending have shrunk dramatically –14.7% and 17.9%, respectively.A Social ProblemThe scarcity of small dollar loans disproportionately impacts minority communities.Small dollar loans serve Main Street businesses critical to underserved communities and SBA’s mission.An Agency ProblemSBA lending is not expanding capital access to underserved communities. While 7(a) dollars may be up, the number of loans is down 16%. Microloan and SBIC programs show the same trend. SBA is lending more dollars, but helping fewer businesses.

Lenders Responded: Simplify Origination Procedures and Reduce SBA Loans’ Overhead

} Originating a $50k Standard 7(a) loan costs many lenders as much as a $1m conventional loan.

} The cost of maintaining specialized SBA staff further erodes profit margins.
} This bank’s pre-tax income is $5.2m, which is almost equal to its SBA fees.

14 Deliberative & Confidential
} SBA wants to stimulate small business and small dollar lending.} Current SBA policies subject all lenders to unnecessarily
complex underwriting processes.} These processes are so expensive that they make small dollar
lending untenable.} SBA will allow all lenders to originate small dollar loans on
their own authority.} SBA will replace its underwriting process with credit scoring.} These streamlined procedures will:} Reduce NAGGL members’ transaction costs for SBA lending.} Make SBA lending more profitable for NAGGL members.} Increase disadvantaged businesses’ access to capital.
