Who We Are

THE RESPONSIBLE BUSINESS LENDING COALITION

The Responsible Business Lending Coalition and its members represent over 1,000 small business groups, for-profit lenders, and nonprofits, who have come together to stop the rise of irresponsible small business lending and encourage the innovation of more and better financing options for small businesses.

The Responsible Business Lending Coalition's work is grounded in the Small Business Borrowers' Bill of Rights, the first consensus industry/ nonprofit standards for responsible financing to small businesses. One hundred small business financing providers, industry leaders, and advocacy organizations have endorsed these standards.
