Why hasn’t SBA offered floor plan financing in the past?
DFP is a specialized type of revolving credit. Historically, SBA loan programs were term oriented and only recently have revolving credit products been offered. In addition, SBA previously serviced and liquidated most of its loans and never had the resources to properly manage the collateral necessary for a successful DFP program. SBA has now delegated almost all of these functions to our lending partners making a DFP initiative viable.
