SOP 50 10 8: New Working Capital Rules for 7(a) Small Loans Explained
The SBA’s new SOP 50 10 8 introduces significant changes for the 7(a) Small Loan program, effective June 1, 2025. Lenders must now provide detailed justification in their credit memorandum when 50% or more of a loan over $50,000 is for working capital. This change is tied to new, stricter collateral requirements, mandating a lien on all of the applicant business’s fixed assets until the loan is fully secured.
