Small Business Flex Fund 2 (Micro Loan Program) \u2014 Paused<\/h1>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||21px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Washington\u2019s Small Business Flex Fund 2 is currently pausing the processing of new loan applications.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the state continues to enhance and improve the programs it offers using State Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI) funding from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Washington State Department of Commerce (Commerce) is moving the program into its next phase, incorporating recent market shifts and addressing evolving needs among both lenders and Washington\u2019s small businesses. The goal is to offer a broad and flexible suite of loan products that better align with current demand. <\/p>\n

As part of this transition, the Washington Small Business Flex Fund 2 will undergo a redesign to enhance its performance and effectiveness, ensuring it can more fully meet the microloan needs of small businesses across the state. During the redesign period, Commerce will pause the processing of new loan applications. <\/p>\n
