What is the Nature of the Government Guaranteed Portion of an SBA 7(a) or USDA Loan? Depends on who is asking 5
Originating Lender Guarantee is conditional : may be compromised or lost if underwriting or servicing is not SBA/USDA compliant Guaranteed portion is not counted as a MBL and therefore not counted toward aggregate business lending cap (Part 723.1(b)(4)) 6
Secondary Market Investor Investor purchasing guaranteed portion receives an unconditional guarantee from the government Per NCUA General Counsel Opinion, the unconditional government guarantee transforms this loan participation into a permissible investment 7

Greg s 10 Commandments of GGLs 1. Do your homework, know the asset class and your goals 2. Know your balance sheet and make sure SBAs fit 3. Understand the risks GGLs mitigate and those they add 4. If you only dip your toe, you may end up getting a bath 5. Premiums command respect not necessarily fear 6. Know the major poolers for best supply and price 7. Compare product characteristics, pools vs. whole loans, SBA vs USDA, 7a vs 504 and find the best fit 8. Don t view these assets as BAGBD (buy and go brain dead) 9. GGL markets are cyclical, know entry and exit points 10. Proverbs 15:22
