Small business lending database

The CFPB's small business lending database will be the most comprehensive source of publicly available information on U.S. small business lending. Learn about data filing and publication.

On May 1, 2026, the CFPB published a final rule to reconsider portions of the small business lending rule and extend its compliance date to January 1, 2028.  You can read the final rule here. The CFPB will update these materials to reflect the final rule at a later date.

About the small business lending rule

The CFPB’s rule on small business lending data requires covered financial institutions and voluntary reporters to maintain, report, and publicly disclose information about small business lending. This data is intended to help show whether lenders are serving the credit needs of small businesses in their communities, by increasing transparency in the lending marketplace.
