This site is not First Bank of the Lake

sbaexpress.loans is not First Bank of the Lake, and First Bank of the Lake 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 First Bank of the Lake.

These are the 61 SBA 7(a) loans First Bank of the Lake made in New York approved October 2023 to June 2026. Each figure is set against all of its loans in the U.S. over the same period.

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 We do not publish any figure built on fewer than 5 loans.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.
