Innovation: A Critical Component in SBA PPP Loan Origination and Forgiveness

Written by Q2 | 28 May, 2020

As the COVID-19 pandemic progresses, small and medium-sized businesses continue to look for financial resources to help them weather the storm. Many financial institutions (FIs) are responding to new challenges as well, laboring through the processes for SBA PPP loan origination and loan forgiveness, grappling with difficult and evolving regulations and large volumes of documentation.

The challenges business owners and FIs are facing now require new lending technology to address the immediacy of need and the stresses on FIs’ existing lending infrastructure and staff. In response, Q2 is providing help on all counts.
