SBA and SPARK Update to Guaranty Fees

The SBA has updated the Guaranty Fee for SBA 7(a) Loans effective Sunday, October 1, 2023. The SBA's information notice can be referenced here.

From October 1st onward, new loans created in SPARK will automatically use the new Guaranty Fee amounts. For loans that are already active in SPARK, a new Guaranty Fee will not be calculated automatically. These packages will show a banner prompting users to apply the updated Guaranty Fee.

The guaranty fee can also be recalculated via Edit Package:
