biggest_sba_banks

Biggest banks in SBA lending

Return the biggest banks in SBA lending, joining FDIC call-report size (assets, deposits, loans outstanding) to SBA 7(a) production. Use when the user asks about large or national banks rather than the most active SBA lenders.

Input

Example call

Largest banks active in SBA lending by assets.

{

POST to https://www.capbench.com/api/mcp.

Output

A JSON array or object of records (the same shape as the matching public REST endpoint), wrapped in the standard envelope below with canonical_url, data_freshness, methodology, source_summary, caveats, and citation.

Example response

Every result is wrapped in the standard CapBench envelope — same canonical_url, data_freshness, methodology, source_summary, caveats, and citation as the REST API.
