Main Street Lending Program
The goal of the Main Street Lending Program is to keep credit flowing to small and mid-sized entities and nonprofit organizations that were in sound financial condition before the coronavirus pandemic but now need financing to maintain operations.
Recent updates:
- On Thursday, October 15, the Main Street Lending Program posted a short, shareable overview for potential nonprofit borrowers, explaining the core terms of the program and the eligibility criteria. This tool complements the previously posted general program overview and the video overview.
- On Thursday, October 8, the Main Street Lending Program launched an interactive dashboard report providing a visual depiction of the MSLP’s usage, including a geographic distribution of MSLP loans. The dashboard is updated monthly based on the Federal Reserve’s Periodic Report: Update on Outstanding Lending Facilities Authorized by the Board under Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act.
