This site is not Bank of Hope
sbaexpress.loans is not Bank of Hope, and Bank of Hope did not provide, review or pay for this page. Janover Capital LLC runs this site. Every figure on this page comes from SBA's public 7(a) loan file, not from Bank of Hope.
A small base
This page rests on 43 loans. Medians and shares on so few loans can swing on a few loans, so use them as a rough guide.
These are the 43 SBA 7(a) loans Bank of Hope made in Georgia approved October 2023 to June 2026. Each figure is set against all of its loans in the U.S. over the same period. State is where the business is, not where the lender is based. The file lists loans SBA approved, so it shows what the lender has done and not what it will do for you.

Georgia next to the U.S.
| Measure | Georgia | All its U.S. loans | Reading |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lender's share of all SBA loans | 0.93% | 0.55% | Clearly higher |
| Median loan | $680,000 | $400,000 | No clear gap |
| Middle half of loans | $410,000 to $1,230,250 | $200,000 to $1,000,000 | – |
| Startups (the loan opens the business) | 0.0% | 2.3% | No clear gap |
| In business 2 years or less | 72.1% | 36.2% | Clearly higher |
| In business more than 2 years | 18.6% | 53.5% | Clearly lower |
| Change of ownership | Fewer than 5 | 8.0% | n/a |
| SBA Express | Fewer than 5 | 34.4% | Clearly lower |

| Median term | 10 years | 10 years | – |
| Median spread over Prime at approval | 1.5 points over Prime | 1.75 points over Prime | – |
Clearly higher and clearly lower mark a gap large enough to matter and unlikely to be chance for this many loans. Spread over Prime is the rate at approval minus Prime that day, so it is not today's rate. Rows with a dash are shown for reference.

How to read this
Counts come from SBA's 7(a) loan-level data release, as of June 30, 2026. The file lists loans SBA approved. It does not list declined applications, so it cannot show approval odds. We do not publish any figure built on fewer than 5 loans. A lender's past loans do not describe its current credit policy. Location is the borrower's address in the file. Loans are those approved October 1, 2023 to June 30, 2026. SBA's fiscal year runs October 1 to September 30. Each figure is set against the national figure for the same period. A gap is called clear when it is large enough to matter and unlikely to be chance for this many loans. A comparison with no clear gap in the loans is not published. Express counts SBA Express and Export Express loans. Lines of credit are loans SBA's file flags as revolving. How we build these pages.
