This meticulously assembled list showcases the top small business lenders in Georgia, underpinned by solid data. We've organized these lenders by the number of small business loans they've issued throughout the year.
In essence, our list shines a spotlight on those banks and lending entities that are actually lending the most to small businesses across the state.
(Contrast this with several other sites that typically focus on nonprofits and government programs that lend to very few businesses!)
Takeaway: In Georgia, both large national and smaller regional banks provide loans to small businesses, encompassing a diverse range of loan types.
Methodology: Our study is anchored in SBA 7a loan data, ensuring that each lender we mention provides these loans. We've also documented different types of small business loans that are advertised on their websites.
A critical point to remember is that conventional banks typically set rigorous requirements, such as strong credit scores and at least two years of business history. Acknowledging this, our list starts with two financing options designed to assist small business owners who are either new to business or struggling with credit issues.
