More about this list

1,237 of them made a loan in fiscal year 2026. Together they approved about 48,500 loans for about $29 billion that year. The 25 busiest lenders made about 59% of those loans. Each row is one lender with its head office address and map point. It carries total loans and dollars since FY2020 and loans and dollars for each fiscal year from 2020 to 2026. It counts loans in eight size bands for each year, from under $150,000 up to the $5 million maximum. It counts business acquisition loans for each year and those at $2.5 million and up on their own. For FY2026 it adds the average loan, average interest rate, variable-rate share, average term, Preferred Lender and SBA Express shares, secondary-market sales, franchise and new-business shares, the top borrower industry and state, and the lender's rank by loans and by dollars. Charge-offs, paid-in-full and canceled loans and jobs supported cover the whole period. Every count and dollar figure leaves out canceled loans. They sit in a column of their own. About 1,570 lenders made at least one business acquisition loan. 116 made ten or more in FY2026. 44 made five or more at $2.5 million and up. Those are the deals where SBA's rules now call for a quality of earnings report. Use it to find the lenders that fund acquisitions, rank lenders in a state or by loan size, target banks for a lender service, or read a bank's SBA program against its peers.

✓Where this data comes from

This dataset is built from the FDIC BankFind Suite — the institution table, the office-location table (every office an insured institution has registered with the FDIC, from the main office to loan production offices) and the annual Summary of Deposits survey — joined on the FDIC's own branch and certificate ids. Nothing here comes from a bank's website; every row is the institution's own registered entry, and the service_type column says what kind of office it is. The FDIC publishes no telephone numbers, and none are appended.

Fill measured

On every row of the delivered file

Offices are published as the FDIC holds them; the only rows removed are the foreign offices of US banks (London, Nassau, Buenos Aires…), which are counted and stated on each dataset. Coordinates are validated to US bounds and blanked where the register's value was impossible; dates are normalised to ISO. Deposit figures are joined from the June 30 Summary of Deposits and carry that survey date on every row, so an office opened since the survey shows a blank rather than a guess.

Using ChatGPT, Claude or an API?

No setup needed. Ask ChatGPT or Claude your question about the SBA 7(a) Lenders and give it this page: it can open https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=sba-7a-lender-list with the filters you need and show you the count and price.

How assistants ask

No connector needed. Any AI assistant can answer from this site with a web link, no connector, no account: open https://locationlists.com/find with the question as query parameters.

If a question needs filtering, distance, combining lists or a price, open a /find link: either put the question itself in q=, or build the structured link. The answer does not need an API, a connector or an account.

Simplest, the question itself: https://locationlists.com/find?q=<the question in plain words>

Or set the parts yourself: https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=<slug>&state=<ST>&city=<city>&county=<county>&zip=<zip>&near=<place or zip>&radius=<miles>&where=<column>:<op>:<value>&total=<rows>

Leave out what the question does not need. Distance is radius, in straight-line miles; near can name several places separated by | to reach from any of them. To ask about several lists at once, use datasets with two or more names, or category with a kind of business. To compare two lists, add relate=nearest and the other list with b. in front of its parameters. To count by area, use areas=county (or zip, state, metro). To keep only places whose county, ZIP code, metro area or state meets a Census figure, add area_where (for example county:population>1000000); with areas, per=100000 gives counts per 100,000 residents.

Links an assistant can open, each showing how many rows match, a few preview rows and the price for just that part:

Read https://locationlists.com/skill.md and follow the instructions to connect LocationLists. Then show me the SBA 7(a) Lenders list.

Your assistant will walk you through setup and show you the price before you pay.

For developers

At 2,341 records this dataset is not sold by the row — buy the file. Without a connector, open https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=sba-7a-lender-list. An agent connected to https://locationlists.com/mcp can still search it, read a free sample file of up to 10 rows and buy the whole file itself. How agent purchasing works

?Frequently Asked Questions

How many SBA 7(a) Lenders are there in the US?

There are 2,341 SBA 7(a) Lenders in the US as of November 2026. They are in all 50 states, DC and Puerto Rico.

What counts as a lender?

One row per lending institution. The key is the FDIC certificate number for a bank, the NCUA charter number for a credit union and the name for a non-bank lender. A bank that was bought keeps its own row for the loans it made under its own certificate. The address is the lender address SBA recorded on the lender's newest loan, geocoded by the Census Bureau.

Which loans are counted?

Every 7(a) loan SBA approved from 1 October 2019 to 30 September 2026, except loans canceled before disbursement. Those are in the cancelled column only. Charged-off and paid-in-full loans stay in the counts because they were made. The size bands are on the gross approval amount, which is the loan, not the purchase price of the business.

What is a change-of-ownership loan?

SBA marks each loan with the borrower's business age. Change of Ownership means the loan funded the purchase of an existing business. Since October 2026 SBA requires a lender-engaged quality of earnings report on acquisitions of $3 million and up. The $2.5 million-plus columns show which lenders see those deals. SBA does not flag a loan that funds an expansion by acquisition. Those loans are not in these columns.

Is there a phone number or a contact?

No. SBA's file carries the lender's name and address only. Join on fdic_cert to our US bank lists for branch counts and deposits.

How is this different from SBA's own lender report?

SBA's weekly lender report gives each lender's loan count and dollars for the current fiscal year. This file adds seven fiscal years, eight size bands for each year, acquisition loans, rates, terms, processing mix, charge-offs and rank. It also places each head office on a map.
