Reading the record

What STL Partnership CDC’s numbers say

STL Partnership CDC sits in the long tail of the SBA lending field, having approved 169 loans for a gross total of $122.4M since fiscal 2010. Its median loan of $551,000 is substantially larger than the $180,000 national median, which usually signals a focus on real-estate-backed or acquisition deals rather than small working-capital notes.

Of its FY2010-FY2019 approvals that have reached a terminal status, 3.5% were charged off, 4.1 points below the national figure of 7.6%. Read that as a description of the credit box a lender chose, not as a verdict on it: lenders serving newer businesses and thinner files will always show higher losses than those writing large, collateralised acquisition loans.

Roughly 2% of its approvals went to businesses the SBA classified as new rather than existing, against 11% nationally - a book weighted toward established operators.
