SBA 7(a) Loan Guaranty
Definition of SBA 7(a) Loan Guaranty
The 7(a) Loan Guaranty Program is one of SBA's primary lending programs.
It provides loans to small businesses unable to secure financing on reasonable terms through normal lending channels. The program operates through private-sector lenders that provide loans which are, in turn, guaranteed by the SBA.
In the event of default by the borrower, the SBA is willing to reimburse up to 85% of the loss that the lender would otherwise sustain.
