This bill requires the Small Business Administration (SBA) to submit an annual report containing specified information related to 7(a) loan agents.

The required report must include (1) the number and type of agents assisting applicants for 7(a) loans, (2) the number of fraudulent loans made for which an applicant used the services of a 7(a) agent, (3) the purchase rate of loans for which an applicant used the services of a 7(a) agent, and (4) the number and aggregate dollar value of referral fees paid to 7(a) agents.
