Community Express Loans - Tougher for Women in Business to Get

One of the ways in which the Small Business Administration (SBA) has worked to help women, minorities, and veterans in business has been through the Community Express Loan Program, a lending program that falls under the SBA's 7(a) program. In the past, Community Express Loans were one of the easiest and fastest ways for eligible small-business owners to get government-guaranteed loans.

However, recent changes have had a dramatic (and negative) impact on how loans are allocated, as well as dramatically reduced the number of loans being offered, and even the amount of the loan to approved applicants.
