Abstract:

Small businesses seeking financing from specialized small business investment companies (SSBICs) are required to provide the requested information to the SSBIC in support of their eligibility for such financing based on their ownership by individuals who are either socially or economically disadvantaged, as defined in 13 CFR 124.103. Written certification of eligibility is required by section 308(h) of the Small Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended. The information is retained by the SSBIC but is reviewed periodically by an SBA examiner as part of his/her on-site examination of the SSBIC, which is required by statute to occur at least biennially (15 U.S.C. Section 687b(c)).
