COVID-19 Small Business Relief


We've been an active participant in SBA lending for years and are relied on as a resource for much needed funding during these uncertain times.  

The CARES Act has been signed into law by President Trump and you can find the highlights below, along with other helpful links. 

 


Paycheck Protection Program

While funding for the PPP has ended for now, the Bank is now accepting applications to be prepared to provide even more opportunities when offered again by the SBA, which could be as soon as this week.

With an overwhelming response, CNB Bank, including FCBank, approved over 1,000 applications for $177 million in assistance to business customers. FCBank alone processed over 100 applications for over $25 million. FCBank estimates that assistance was provided to employers to protect over 3,500 jobs in our communities.

The original $349 billion authorized for Paycheck Protection Program loans was exhausted as of April 16, 2020, and the SBA has discontinued accepting applications for PPP loans, for the time being.  Any loan applications that have received an SBA authorization number will receive an SBA guaranty.
