SBA Lending

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a Small Business Administration (SBA) loan?

    The SBA is a federal agency that helps established businesses grow and helps new businesses get started.

    As a borrower, you’re not borrowing from the SBA, you’re borrowing from a financial institution that works with the SBA to provide loans to small business customers.

  • Is an SBA loan only for a new business?

    No. CalPrivate Bank provides SBA loans to many established businesses, so they can grow and expand.

  • Is an SBA loan from one bank the same as from another bank?

    No. An SBA loan must be approved by the issuing bank, and each bank has its own lending criteria.

    An SBA Preferred Lender is likely to provide you with better terms and a smoother application and closing process than a bank that is not an SBA Preferred Lender.
