While we do that, it\u2019s also a great time to educate and inspire those who may be just getting started or wish to learn all the ins and outs of managing finances when running a small business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more than 50 years, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has celebrated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sba.gov\/national-small-business-week\">National Small Business Week<\/a>, which recognizes the critical contributions of America\u2019s entrepreneurs and small business owners. This year\u2019s theme, \u201cBuilding a Better America Through Entrepreneurship\u201d celebrates the resiliency and tenacity of America\u2019s entrepreneurs who are doing their part to power our nation\u2019s historic economic comeback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regardless of the time of year, SBA helps small businesses get funding by setting guidelines for loans and reducing lender risk. These <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sba.gov\/funding-programs\/loans\">SBA-backed loans<\/a> make it easier for small businesses to get the funding they need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amerantbank.com\/sba-loan\/\">Amerant Bank\u2019s SBA loan offerings<\/a> can provide flexibility and value to both entrepreneurs who are just getting their business started and business owners who want to expand their existing business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First Vice President and Head of SBA Lending at Amerant Bank Yvonne Boucugnani offers advice for getting started with an SBA loan:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"256\" src=\"https:\/\/amerant-of-interest-qa-wp-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Quotes-for-Blog-Posts-banner-1024x256.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1583\" srcset=\"https:\/\/amerant-of-interest-qa-wp-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Quotes-for-Blog-Posts-banner-1024x256.png 1024w, https:\/\/amerant-of-interest-qa-wp-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Quotes-for-Blog-Posts-banner-300x75.png 300w, https:\/\/amerant-of-interest-qa-wp-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Quotes-for-Blog-Posts-banner-768x192.png 768w, https:\/\/amerant-of-interest-qa-wp-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Quotes-for-Blog-Posts-banner.png 1171w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBe prepared,\u201d added Boucugnani. \u201cTo ensure a smooth process, compile all of your financial statements, as well as your business plan, before meeting with a loan officer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are many variables and options that come with an SBA loan, and while not every single loan will be right for every business, Yvonne points out that most businesses look for two important factors when applying for loans:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1) Loan term, which is the duration of the loan until it\u2019s paid off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2) Interest rate, the percentage of the loan amount that you pay the lender as the cost for borrowing money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s also important to note that an SBA loan should always be tailored to fit your business needs, and Yvonne emphasizes that \u201cthere\u2019s no better bank than Amerant to work with for this reason.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOne of Amerant\u2019s most attractive benefits is the fact it\u2019s a community bank,\u201d she adds. \u201cLarger banks traditionally struggle with truly connecting with clients.
