Once accepted into the SBLF program, the participating bank is required to submit a Supplemental Report each quarter. The Supplemental Report is used to determine the bank's small business lending baseline and allows Treasury to assess the change in the small business lending for the previous quarter.
There is an estimated reduction of 756 hours of burden due to a drop in the number of SBLF participants. Since the last renewal, 54 participants have redeemed their securities and left the program, leaving only two remaining who will continue to file quarterly reports.
