4 Background of Florida’s SSBCI Program Created as part of the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, SSBCI was designed by the federal government to help states strengthen existing loan and equity programs and/or create new programs that support financing small businesses. Florida received an allocation of $97,662,349. The primary objective of SSBCI is to leverage private capital for Florida's small businesses. At the end of the five-year program, Florida must show that, taken together, $10 in new small business lending or investment was generated by every $1 in SSBCI funding (known hereafter as the "10:1 private capital leverage ratio"). Accordingly, Florida's SSBCI programs must generate at least $976,623,490 in new private capital for Florida's small businesses.

13 Florida Capital Access Program (FL-CAP) FL-CAP is a loan portfolio insurance program that enables lenders to make riskier loans to small businesses in Florida by making cash contributions to a reserve fund for each enrolled CAP loan. When a loan is originated, the Borrower will contribute a percentage of the loan (between 2 - 7%) into a reserve fund held by the lender. FL-CAP will match that contribution by depositing cash into the lender held reserve fund. Each CAP reserve fund will be available to the financial institution as cash collateral to cover losses on all loans within its FL-CAP portfolio. $5,000,000 maximum loan amount; no minimum loan amount.
