This site is not M&T Bank

sbaexpress.loans is not M&T Bank, and M&T Bank 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 M&T Bank.

These are the 361 SBA 7(a) loans [M&T Bank](https://www.sbaexpress.loans/sba-express-lenders/m-and-t-bank/) made in [Virginia](https://www.sbaexpress.loans/virginia-small-business-loans/) 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.

| Measure | Virginia | All its U.S. loans | Reading |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Lender's share of all SBA loans | 12.2% | 3.7% | Clearly higher |
| Median loan | $70,000 | $50,000 | Clearly higher |

| Startups (the loan opens the business) | 25.5% | 16.8% | Clearly higher |
| In business 2 years or less | 26.6% | 26.1% | No clear gap |

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 We do not publish any figure built on fewer than 5 loans.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](https://www.sbaexpress.loans/method/).
