SBA Lender Risk Rating System Notice and Request for Comments
SBA is proposing for comment a lender risk rating system. The lender risk rating system is an internal tool to assist SBA in assessing the risk of each active 7(a) Lender and Certified Development Company's (``SBA Lender'') SBA loan operations, and loan portfolio, on a uniform basis and for identifying those institutions whose SBA loan operations and portfolio require additional SBA monitoring or other action. It is also a vehicle for assessing the aggregate strength of SBA's 7(a) and 504 portfolios. Under the lender risk rating system, SBA would assign each Lender a composite rating based on certain portfolio performance factors, which may be overridden in some cases due to Lender specific factors that may be indicative of a higher or lower level of risk. SBA Lenders would have access to their own ratings through SBA's Lender Portal.
