Reading the record
What Northwoods Bank of Minnesota’s numbers say
Northwoods Bank of Minnesota sits in the long tail of the SBA lending field, having approved 26 loans for a gross total of $3.3M since fiscal 2010. Its median loan of $68,150 is well below the $180,000 national median, typical of a lender leaning on SBA Express and smaller working-capital facilities.
The median initial note rate across its 7(a) approvals is 5.88%, 0.87 points below the national median of 6.75%. Rate medians drawn across fifteen years reflect the mix of loan sizes and vintages a lender wrote as much as its pricing posture - a lender that grew fastest during a high-rate stretch will look expensive here even if its spread was ordinary.
Roughly 0% of its approvals went to businesses the SBA classified as new rather than existing, against 11% nationally - a book weighted toward established operators.
