SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION


Interest Rates; Quarterly Determinations

    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 4.375 (4\3/8\) percent for the October-December 
quarter of FY 2004.

James E. Rivera,
Associate Administrator for Financial Assistance.
