Associated Bank specializes in SBA guaranteed loans. We are one of the premier SBA lenders in the states of Wisconsin, Minnesota and Illinois. Associated Bank authorized more SBA 7(a) loans than any other lender in the State of Wisconsin for the 5th year in a row. In addition to the state rankings, Associated moved into the top 15 SBA lenders nationally.

The U.S. Small Business Administration assists America's small businesses through a number of programs. The most commonly utilized program is the SBA 7(a) Guaranteed Loan Program. Under this program, guaranteed loans are made to business borrowers by lenders, such as Associated Bank, but are guaranteed by the SBA with funds appropriated by Congress.

Associated Bank holds both Preferred and Express Lender designations with the SBA. These designations allow Associated Bank to underwrite SBA loans quickly and efficiently; thus making the application process as seamless and efficient as our commercial loans.

Benefits of an SBA Guaranteed Loan from Associated Bank:

  • Credit is not otherwise available on reasonable terms
  • Fast approval with Associated Bank's Preferred and Express designations
  • Longer Term & Longer Amortization
  • Improved cash flow through a lower payment
  • Larger loan amount than would otherwise be available
  • Competitive interest rate (fixed or variable)
  • Flexible terms and conditions
