Why Traditional Banks Often Decline Smaller Loans
Traditional banks play a vital role in business and real-estate lending, but most have internal policies and cost structures that make smaller loan requests less practical to fund.
Because every loan — large or small — requires similar underwriting, documentation, and compliance review, the cost of processing a $100,000 loan can be nearly the same as a $1 million loan.
For efficiency, many banks set minimum loan sizes or lending thresholds. As a result, many creditworthy borrowers are declined not because of credit or risk, but because their request falls below a bank's internal minimum.
