What the Experts Have to Say
"The purpose of the SBLF is to loan money to banks so that they will loan to Main Street."

"This webinar will jumpstart the process for community banks -- helping them adequately plan so that they can make an informed decision about pursuing these funds."

"It is nice to see that the SBA is committed to transparency when working with lenders".

"This is NOT TARP -- the Small Business Lending Fund differs in many ways and this workshop will highlight those differences."

"This is an opportunity all community banks should explore."

On Wednesday, January 5th, the nation's leading small business lending experts will discuss the new Small Business Lending Fund regulations. Our panel has been at the forefront in the development and implementation of this new program. They have been working closely with the Treasury Department and the bank regulatory agencies to help banks take advantage of this attractive capital initiative. Be among the first to know the "how's, what's, why's and who's" in accessing and administering SBLF dollars.

We are offering an unlimited site license to participate for only $495.

Overview for Banks
Banks participating in the Small Business Lending Fund will benefit from the incentives the Fund provides for increased lending. The initial rate a bank pays for the funding will be no higher than 5%. The more the bank increases its small business lending, the lower the rate it will receive.

How the Small Business Lending Fund Works
Treasury will provide a bank with capital by purchasing Tier 1-qualifying preferred stock or equivalents.

To encourage community bank participation, the cost of capital will start no higher than 5%. If a bank's small business lending increases by 10% or more, then the rate will fall as low as 1%.

Banks that increase their lending by amounts less than 10% can benefit from rates set between 2% and 4%. If lending does not increase in the first two years, however, the rate will increase to 7%. After 4.5 years, the rate will increase to 9% if the bank has not already repaid the SBLF funding.

The Small Business Lending Fund also provides an option for community banks to refinance preferred stock issued to Treasury through the Capital Purchase Program (CPP) or the Community Development Capital Initiative (CDCI) under certain conditions. However, simultaneous participation in CPP or CDCI and SBLF is not permitted.
