Are you a SBA lender struggling to navigate the complex web of regulations and compliance requirements with your loan brokers?

Referrals from a commercial loan broker can be a minefield, with strict rules and penalties for non-compliance. One misstep, such as failing to provide proper disclosures or making false statements, could result in SBA loan guaranty denials, hefty fines, PLP license revocation, or even criminal charges.

The consequences can be devastating for your borrower, your reputation and risk.

Regulations governing commercial loan brokers are not just complex, but constantly evolving. New technologies like AI and fintech disruptors are forcing all regulators to adapt, with emerging risks around data privacy, fair lending, and transparency.
