SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION


Interest Rates

    The Small Business Administration publishes an interest rate called 
the optional ``peg'' rate (13 CFR 120.214) on a quarterly basis. This 
rate is a weighted average cost of money to the government for 
maturities similar to the average SBA direct loan. This rate may be 
used as a base rate for guaranteed fluctuating interest rate SBA loans. 
This rate will be 6.375 (6 \3/8\) percent for the July-September 
quarter of FY 2000.

Arnold S. Rosenthal,
Acting Deputy Associate Administrator for Financial Assistance.
