The First Funding of the 25-Year
Debenture for the SBA 504 Loan Program
On July 5th, the SBA 504 program priced its first 25-year debenture, giving small business borrowers a much sought-after option to better manage their debt service. Being able to secure longer-term, fixed rate funding in a rising rate environment permits borrowers to choose terms that best fit their needs.
The sale of $27,536,000 debentures reflects the demand that Certified Development Companies have seen from borrowers, with 23 loans being priced at a rate of 3.68%, +85 bps to benchmark Treasuries. The median size of 25 year amortization loans was $822,000 compared to the $453,000 median size of 20 year amortization loans.
The funding permitted these small businesses to secure an ongoing Effective Rate of 5.32%, just 32 bps above Prime Rate.
It has been reported that as much as $200 million of 25-year loans have already been approved as of mid-June, so it is expected that this loan option will see continued growth.
