SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For financial assistance programs authorized 
by section 7(a) and (b) of the Small Business Act and Title V of the 
Small Business Investment Act of 1958, SBA regulations require any loan 
guarantor and individual owners of the small business applicant to 
submit a personal financial statement to provide information on their 
assets and liabilities. See, 13 CFR 120.191 and 13 CFR 123.6. The 
information is necessary for the Agency, the participating lender or 
CDC to make informed decisions concerning the applicant's repayment 
abilities or creditworthiness.
    For the 8(a) Business Development (BD), Small Disadvantaged 
Business (SDB), and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) programs the 
information is necessary for SBA to determine if the applicant or 
participant meets the economic disadvantage requirements to participate 
in these programs. SBA regulations at 13 CFR 124.104, 124.112, 
124.1002, and 13 CFR 127.203 require, among other things, that 
applicants and participants submit financial information to facilitate 
this determination.
