Reading the record
What Wallis Bank’s numbers say
Wallis Bank sits solidly inside the SBA lending field, having approved 1,365 loans for a gross total of $1.71B since fiscal 2010. Its median loan of $750,000 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.
The median initial note rate across its 7(a) approvals is 6.00%, 0.75 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.
Of its FY2010-FY2019 approvals that have reached a terminal status, 6.4% were charged off, 1.1 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 21% of its approvals went to businesses the SBA classified as new rather than existing, against 11% nationally - a meaningfully greater appetite for startups than the average SBA lender.
