The Small Business Administration's money, the whole of it, traced to the source.
Office of the Chief Financial Officer · SBA
SBA is small and mostly discretionary — Salaries & Expenses, Entrepreneurial Development grants, the administrative cost of the 7(a)/504 loan-guarantee programs, the Disaster Loan account, and oversight. Read account by account, FY2026 enacted versus the FY2027 request, $ in millions. Loan-program subsidy cost is kept strictly separate from loan volume, and the one-time PPP/EIDL pandemic supplementals are flagged out of the base. Every number recomputes against its own source.

$ in millions · discretionary appropriation accountsFY2027 concentrates a 74.7% cut from the FY2026 enacted level: Entrepreneurial Development falls to $21.4M (veterans outreach only), the Business Loans Program Account administrative appropriation is zeroed (contingent on a proposed new 7(a)-lender fee), and congressionally- directed spending is not requested. In nominal terms, the lowest SBA discretionary funding since at least FY2000.
