SBA has provided guidance regarding how some Secondary Market transactions will be handled during any government shutdown.  Most importantly, SBA had advised that the sale of 7(a) loans into the Secondary Market “may continue only for those loans where all required sale documentation was received by the FTA via settlementexpress@sba.gov on or before 5 PM EST on Friday, September 29, 2023”, with no exceptions.  Please see the SBA document for information regarding other Secondary Market activities.
