Hana Financial, Inc., one of the nation’s leading non-bank specialty commercial lenders, announced that its SBA lending unit, Hana Small Business Lending, Inc., has completed the securitization and sale of approximately $46.1 million of notes backed by the unguaranteed portion of a pool of U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) loans.

The notes issued from this transaction received an “A-” rating from Standard and Poor’s.  This transaction also represented Hana’s third (3rd) SBA non-guaranteed securitization since 2012. In 2014, Hana completed a similar SBA securitization of $46.2 million, and in 2012, executed an SBA securitization of $26.6 million.

Guggenheim Securities, LLC served as initial purchaser of the notes, which were fully subscribed.

“Hana Financial’s expertise in SBA lending and its commitment to credit quality are the reasons this securitization was so attractive to institutional investors,” said Sunnie S. Kim, Co-founder, President & Chief Executive Officer of Hana Financial. “Hana continues to succeed by identifying qualified borrowers and originating high-quality SBA loans.”
