The Future of the SBA 7a Program feat. Mike Breckheimer, Charles Rho, & Bob Coleman | Ep. 165

The Art of SBA Lending

This week on The Art of SBA Lending we’re bringing you through the evolution of The SBA.

What started as a small-scale government program in 1953 has grown into a $35+ billion industry, touching every corner of U.S. business. In this episode, The Art of SBA Lending explores the dynamic story of SBA 7(a) – and the potential paths it might take.

Ray and an expert panel of Art of SBA Contributors discuss:

➡️ Reaction to the bold changes of 2023: whether the concerns surrounding the sweeping changes made in 2023, such as the “Do What You Do” policy and new SBLC licenses, were justified or overblown.

➡️ Zero-subsidy model: Ray asks the panel if they think the zero-subsidy model (where the program is funded through fees, not government appropriations) will continue, considering the government’s massive deficits and spending.

➡️ Emerging technologies: The panel shares thoughts on emerging technologies that could transform the SBA lending space.

As well as desired and anticipated changes for the industry over the next 5 years and what it’s going to take to stand out.

Join Ray Drew, Bob Coleman, Charles Rho, and Mike Breckheimer as they reflect on where SBA 7(a) is headed next. 🎙️
