FY 2016 Appropriation

The State Small Business Credit Initiative Program Fund is an enterprise fund to provide loan and loan guarantees for the federal government's Small Business Credit Initiative. The program guarantees up to 80% of loans for small business owners. Because the state purchases portions of loans, the program receives fee and interest income.
