Counted from each lender's own website: a lender is listed when it describes small business loans on a page we read and is headquartered in Missouri or names Missouri, or a county or town in it, as its service area. 3 other verified lenders that serve Missouri did not mention small business loans on the pages we read, and 10 lenders headquartered here have no verified data yet. Not mentioned does not mean not offered. A listing is not an offer: ask the lender.
