Information on SBA Secondary Market Program

Official abstract: The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is maintaining the 89.0 percent minimum maturity ratio for SBA Standard Pools and Weighted-Average Coupon (WAC) Pools. The minimum maturity ratio is a pool-formation characteristic intended to support the estimated cost of SBA's timely payment guaranty for newly formed pools of SBA-guaranteed portions of 7(a) loans. SBA will incorporate this notice, as appropriate, into the SBA Secondary Market Program Guide and other applicable SBA Secondary Market program materials.
