Helps businesses in U.S. territories get loans with a 90% government guarantee.
This bill would make it easier for certain small businesses in U.S. territories to get loans. The Small Business Administration would guarantee 90% of these loans, which is a higher rate than usual. This change aims to help these businesses secure financing, though some specific loan types would not qualify.
Today, the Small Business Administration guarantees loans for businesses, but there isn't a general rule for a 90 percent guarantee rate for businesses in U.S. territories. If this bill passes, the SBA would generally guarantee 90 percent of certain loans for these businesses, potentially making it easier for them to get financing.
