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 Montana or names Montana, or a county or town in it, as its service area. 3 other verified lenders that serve Montana did not mention small business loans on the pages we read, and 1 lenders headquartered here have no verified data yet. Not mentioned does not mean not offered. A listing is not an offer: ask the lender.
