		<description><![CDATA[One big problem for borrowers is locating a loan from a lender who is not their bank. Many of the banks want to provide loans to current customers only, especially if they hold a loan from that customer. Also, many banks have additional requirements for the loans beyond what the SBA has required. But not one of the banks is happy about having to process and underwrite a loan package for a $35,000 loan that requires nearly as much information as a needed for a regular sized SBA 7(a) loan.

My company, Business Borrowers Alliance, is contacting the large and mid-sized banks to learn if they are participating and what their specific requirements are. 

We provide direct assistance and help to businesses throughout the complete ARC Loan application process. For more information, contact us at 866-944-3866,  mail@businessborrowersalliance.org  or visit www.businessborrowersalliance.org]]></description>
