| Small
Business Administration |
Nearly
20 million small businesses have received direct
or indirect help from one or another of those SBA
programs since 1953, as the agency has become the
government's most cost-effective instrument for
economic development. In fact, SBA's current
business loan portfolio of roughly 219,000 loans
worth more than $45 billion makes it the largest
single financial backer of
U.S.
businesses in the nation.
Over the past 10
years, (FY 1991-2000), the SBA has helped
almost 435,000 small businesses get more than
$94.6 billion in loans, more than in the entire
history of the agency before 1991. No other lender
in this country – perhaps no other lender in the
world – has been responsible for as much small
business financing as the SBA has during that
time.
