SBA lenders are facing a wave of new compliance challenges with SOP 50 57 4, effective November 1, 2025. The revisions reshape how lenders must service and liquidate SBA loans, and a missed step could put your guaranty at risk. From new deadlines to expanded denial grounds, the pressure is on compliance teams to update policies and procedures quickly. The rules of SOP 50 57 3.1 are no longer enough.
Among the biggest traps are the expanded list of lender failures that can now trigger guaranty repairs or denials, along with stricter enforcement of the 24-month Prudent Liquidation Deadline, and the entirely new SBA Uncollectible loan status that changes how referrals to Treasury must be handled. Lenders must also prepare Wrap-Up Reports within 30 days, understand which litigation expenses SBA will reject, and apply the increased $10,000 threshold for collateral losses. These are not small details—they are make-or-break rules for guaranty protection.
This webinar will simplify the complexity and give you a practical roadmap for compliance. We will explain what SBA expects in guaranty purchase requests, how to write exception justifications and verify citizenship for new obligors, where to route servicing and liquidation packages now that the Little Rock CLSC is closed, and how to comply with the 10-year PPP record retention requirement. You’ll get clear explanations, real-world context, and step-by-step guidance on each change.
Attendees will walk away with practical strategies to protect their SBA guaranty, including updated compliance manuals, checklists, and training tools for staff. The result is peace of mind: you’ll know how to meet SBA’s new expectations, avoid costly mistakes, and strengthen your institution’s control over servicing and liquidation under SOP 50 57 4.

Why This Training Stands Apart
Why attend this training instead of relying on SBA or other industry programs? Because we bring independence. SBA’s training tells you what the rule says, but not always why it matters or how it affects your daily operations. Our approach is different: we dig into the context behind the changes, explain why SBA made them, and show you how to apply them in real-world lending situations. We are not bound by agency messaging, so we can highlight risks, gray areas, and lender responsibilities with clarity and without bias. The result is practical, contextual guidance that helps you manage your portfolio to protect your guaranty with confidence.
