"The latest round of Paycheck Protection Program funding opened one month ago is making major improvements to the program’s implementation:
For businesses with fewer than ten employees, the share of funding is up nearly 60%
For businesses in rural communities, the share of funding is up nearly 30%
The share of funding distributed through Community Development Financial Institutions and Minority Depository Institutions is up more than 40%
The 14-day exclusivity period will start on Wednesday, February 24, 2021 at 9 a.m., while the other four changes will be implemented by the first week of March. The SBA is working on the program changes and will communicate details throughout this week."
