RealClear Investigations | December 19, 2016
Today, RealClear Investigations, reporter James Varney, launches new oversight of the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) using our updated OpenTheBooks data.

The focus? A special program that SBA officials would rather not discuss: lending to Wall Street! 

Since 2007, OpenTheBooks data shows $14 billion in guaranteed SBA financing to boutique investment firms, private equity, and large Wall Street Banks.

It's 'hedge fund welfare.'

The SBA is channeling billions of dollars to wealthy bankers at taxpayer backed low interest rates.

Then, we found $9.2 billion in guaranteed SBA financing to some of the most successful investment and private bankers in America.

In 2016, OpenTheBooks refreshed and updated our SBA lending data:
