SBA Releases Details of PPP Loan Borrowers

On December 1, 2020, per order from U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, the Small Business Administration (SBA) released the names, addresses and precise loan amounts for each Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) borrower.

Details of these federally backed borrowings originating from PPP loans and Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL) were set to be released on November 19^th following a federal lawsuit filed by several media outlets under the Freedom of Information Act. However, the SBA won a temporary stay of the November 5^th ruling. Judge Boasberg ordered the release of the data by today and the SBA did not appeal.

The SBA previously provided the names and addresses of borrowers whose PPP loans exceeded $150,000, listing borrowers within one of five ranges from $150,000 up to $10 million. For loans under $150,000, the SBA released specific amounts but did not include the names of those borrowers.
