Nevada State Bank Honored with Two Top SBA Lender Awards
LAS VEGAS – The Small Business Administration Nevada District Office announced the annual top lenders report for 2024 last month, placing Nevada State Bank in first place for both Regional Lender of the Year and SBA Nevada 504 Third Party Lender of the Year.
“We are incredibly proud to be recognized as a top SBA lender. This achievement underscores our unwavering commitment to supporting small businesses in our community,” said Nevada State Bank Executive Vice President and Small Business Manager Megan Comfort. “By providing accessible and efficient financing solutions, we empower local entrepreneurs to grow, innovate, and create jobs. Our team is focused on sharing program changes that make SBA loans more accessible and being a resource to help our clients through the process.”
Determined by the Nevada District Office of the U.S. Small Business Administration, the top lender status reflects the quantity of SBA 7(a) and 504 loans guaranteed to Nevada businesses, as well as the dollar volume. Nevada State Bank issued 72 SBA-backed loans, totaling more than $25.5 million, in fiscal year 2024, an increase of 36% from FY2023. Nevada State Bank provides SBA loans to help small businesses get started, maintain operations, or expand in their community.
In his release, Nevada SBA District Director Saul Ramos shared, “Capital is the lifeblood of small businesses and lenders play a pivotal role in bringing their dreams to life. We are thankful for the lending partners who actively leverage SBA loan programs to ensure small businesses have the capital to thrive and prosper.”
