Buyer decision workflow

Compare Acquisition Lenders

Use historical cohort activity to organize outreach without presenting a lender recommendation or approval forecast.

The Buyer Question

Which lenders appear active in comparable historical SBA cohorts, and how concentrated is that activity?

When to Use This Workflow

  • The buyer needs an outreach list
  • The industry is specialized
  • A broker's lender list is unsubstantiated

Inputs Required

  • NAICS and business type
  • State or region
  • Loan amount range and program
  • Desired approval period

Analysis Performed

  • Select a reproducible SBA cohort
  • Rank lender activity without merging institutions by name alone
  • Calculate lender concentration and suppress weak cohorts

Evidence Used

  • Versioned SBA 7(a) and 504 FOIA records
  • Exact cohort filters
  • Dataset period and row count

Decision Outputs

  • Historically active lender observations
  • Comparable count and loan range
  • Concentration warning
  • Questions for current lender outreach

Coverage Limitations

  • Results do not establish current appetite, terms or approval.
  • Institutions with similar names remain distinct identities.
  • The output is not a lender endorsement.

Decision-support boundary: Findings are point-in-time acquisition intelligence, not an appraisal, audit, quality-of-earnings opinion, legal conclusion, lending decision or guaranteed clearance.
