§ 238.2
SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
SBA is authorized under sections 7(a)
and 7(m) of the Small Business Act and
title V of the Small Business Investment
Act of 1958 (the ‘‘SBI Act’’) to conduct
small business loan programs. 15 U.S.C.
636(a) and (m) and 695 et seq. For
purposes of this rule, SBA’s business
loan programs consist of the 7(a) Loan
Program, the Microloan Program, and
the Development Company Loan
Program (‘‘504 Loan Program’’). These
programs provide critical access to
credit for America’s small businesses,
bridging the lending gap that exists in
the market for our nation’s smallest
companies. Along with the authority to
offer government guarantees, Congress
provided SBA the authority to supervise
lenders participating in these programs.
15 U.S.C. 634, 636, 650, and 697.
Growth in lending in the 7(a) Loan
Program prompted Congress to
undertake a thorough examination of
