Main Street Lending Program Provides Relief for WNY Businesses

Main Street Lending - Business Law - Legal Resources - Rupp Baase - People at Law

Partner attorney Jamie Batt and the rest of our Business Law team provide a brief overview of the Main Street Lending Program the Federal Reserve has established to provide financing opportunities for certain American businesses that were unable to receive funding under the Paycheck Protection Program or need additional financial support after receiving the previous funding.  The program will provide four-year loans to eligible businesses with the interest and principal payments deferred for one year.  The eligible banks will be able to either extend new loans to eligible businesses or increase the size of a business’s current loan.  Although the Main Street Lending program’s start date has not been announced, please see below for more information regarding eligibility, the loan amounts available, and how businesses can apply.
