SBA will use the collected information from lending institutions to help determine their eligibility to participate in SBAâs 7(a) Loan Program as an SBA Supervised Lender. The information collection consists of two parts. The first part is the LAP, which will be used to make a preliminary assessment of the lenderâs qualifications, financial condition, and lending experience. To satisfy the LAP submission requirements, a lender will submit its business plan, current and projected financial statements, as well as information on its capitalization and professional management team.
