Reading the record
What Security Federal Bank’s numbers say
Security Federal Bank sits in the long tail of the SBA lending field, having approved 42 loans for a gross total of $12.5M since fiscal 2010. Its median loan of $276,750 is substantially larger than the $180,000 national median, a pattern that usually signals a focus on real-estate-backed or acquisition deals rather than small working-capital notes.
The median initial note rate across its 7(a) approvals is 10.50%, 3.75 points above 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 61% of its approvals with a recorded business age went to startups or businesses two years old or less, against 27% nationally - a meaningfully greater appetite for startups than the average SBA lender.
