WASHINGTON—The U.S. Small Business Administration and U.S. Department of the Treasury have agreed with the bipartisan leaders of the U.S. Senate Small Business Committee to make additional data regarding the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) public. This agreement will ensure that the interests of both transparency and protections for small businesses are served.

“We are striking the appropriate balance of providing public transparency, while protecting the payroll and personal income information of small businesses, sole proprietors, and independent contractors,” said U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin.

“First and foremost, we value transparency and our fiduciary responsibility to ensure that American taxpayer funds are used appropriately,” said SBA Administrator Jovita Carranza. “This responsibility goes together with the steps we are now taking to provide needed public information in step with protecting entrepreneurs’ personally identifiable information associated with their business loan. Small businesses are the driving force of our economic stability and continue leading the way to allow our nation to rebound safely.”

Carranza outlined that SBA would disclose the business names, addresses, NAICS codes, zip codes, business type, demographic data, non-profit information, jobs supported, and loan amount ranges as follows:

• $150,000-350,000
• $350,000-1 million
• $1-2 million
• $2-5 million
• $5-10 million

These categories account for nearly 75 percent of the loan dollars approved, she added. For loans below $150,000, totals will be released, aggregated by zip code, by industry, by business type, and by various demographic categories.

For PPP data disclosed to date, including total dollars approved, loan sizes, lender sizes and types, loans approved by state, top lenders, loans by industry sector, and funds remaining.
