We'll point you to the SBA lenders already funding deals in your industry — and help you make them compete on rate and speed.

Free · No documents · Usually same-day

Backed by data on 1,000+ SBA lenders and 300,000+ funded deals. Your details go only to lending partners you ask to be matched with — never sold to advertisers.

By submitting, I agree that CapBench may share my contact information with SBA lending partners and loan brokers (including partners who compensate CapBench), and that they and CapBench may contact me about financing by phone, email, and text — including via autodialed or prerecorded calls and messages — at the phone number and email I provide. Consent is not a condition of any purchase or service, and message and data rates may apply. CapBench is not a lender and makes no credit decision.

CapBench analysis of public SBA 7(a) lending records; ranked by funded acquisition loans to aircraft manufacturing businesses. Mega-bank call-center lenders excluded.
