SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
Interest Rates
The Small Business Administration publishes an interest rate called
the optional ``peg'' rate (13 CFR 120.214) on a quarterly basis. This
rate is a weighted average cost of money to the government for
maturities similar to the average SBA direct loan. This rate may be
used as a base rate for guaranteed fluctuating interest rate SBA loans.
This rate will be 6\7/8\ percent for the July-September quarter of FY
97.
Pursuant to 13 CFR 120.932, the maximum legal interest rate for a
commercial loan which funds any portion of the cost of a project (see
13 CFR 120.801) shall be the greater of 6% over the New York prime rate
of the limitation established by the constitution or laws of a given
State. The initial rate for a fixed rate loan shall be the legal rate
for the term of the loan.
Jane Palsgrove Butler,
Acting Associate Administrator for Financial Assistance.
