CDC/504 loan servicing

Each month, the Commercial Loan Service Centers receive hundreds of loan servicing actions which can be processed under the CDC’s delegated unilateral servicing authority.

Unilateral actions

All unilateral servicing actions must be submitted to SBA. Please refer to the Servicing and Liquidations CDC Matrix for further details.

Certified Development Companies (CDCs) are expected to submit unilateral servicing actions to the appropriate Commercial Loan Service Center(CLSC). The PCLP/CDC Unilateral Action Notification  or the ALP/CDC Unilateral Action Notification may be used for this purpose. 

For all servicing actions, CDCs must document the justification for their decision and retain these and all supporting documents in their file for future SBA review to determine if the actions taken by the CDC were prudent, commercially reasonable, and complied with all loan program requirements. It is recommended that the CDC retain a copy of the matrix in effect at the time of the request and attach it to the action in their file.

CDCs are reminded that any action taken by the CDC that confers a preference or engages them in an activity that creates a conflict of interest requires prior written consent from the SBA. As defined in 13 CFR § 120.10, preference is any arrangement giving a CDC a preferred position compared to SBA relating to the making, servicing, or liquidation of a business loan with respect to such matters as repayment, collateral, guarantees, control, maintenance of a compensating balance, purchase of a Certificate of Deposit or acceptance of a separate or companion loan.
