SBA Express Lenders

These are the 94 lenders that made 25 or more SBA Express loans in FY2025 and FY2026 through June 30, 2026, ranked by number of loans, from SBA's own loan-level file. Each lender's page shows how big its loans run, where it lends, and which industries it lends to.

812 lenders made at least one SBA Express loan in that window, but the program is concentrated: the top ten made 65.6% of all loans. Rank here means volume only. It says nothing about which lender will approve you or price your loan best.

How to read this list

  • Median loan is the middle loan size. A lender with a $15,000 median is mostly writing small lines of credit; one with a $250,000 median is writing larger term loans.
  • Lines of credit is the share SBA's file flags as revolving. Program-wide it was 75.6%.
  • Top state is where most of the lender's SBA Express borrowers are. Many large banks lend nationally; many community banks lend in one or two states.
