Trump Expands Ban On Foreigners Receiving Small Business Loans
The Trump administration announced that the Small Business Administration will prohibit foreign nationals from accessing any federal small‑business loan program, expanding a ban that previously covered only core loans. The new rule adds the Surety Bond program and the Microloan program, which provide financing up to $50,000 to small businesses and nonprofit childcare centers. In fiscal year 2025, foreign‑owned firms received about 3,400 SBA loans, representing roughly 4% of the agency’s 85,000 approvals. SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler said the move ensures limited federal capital prioritizes American citizens building jobs at home.
