Through our partnership with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), Frost offers several SBA loan programs designed for small businesses. As a Preferred Lender of the SBA, Frost has the authority to process, close, service and liquidate SBA guaranteed loans prior to SBA review.

BENEFITS OF SBA LOANS

SBA loans are long-term loans partially guaranteed by the government. Unlike conventional term loans, SBA loans offer business owners the opportunity to take advantage of lower down payments and favorable terms while removing some of the barriers of traditional financing options.

Frost’s SBA loans can help your business:

  • acquire a new business or franchise
  • finance permanent working capital
  • finance new equipment, heavy machinery, specialized equipment or other fixed assets
  • boost working capital
  • purchase or improve real estate
