AI Summary
This bill establishes the Capital Access Program in the Maryland Department of Commerce to help small businesses that may have difficulty obtaining financing access credit through a loan loss reserve program. The program defines eligible borrowers as small businesses with fewer than 50 employees and allows lenders such as credit unions, financial institutions, and community development financial institutions to enroll qualifying loans of up to $250,000 with a term of up to 10 years. The program requires contributions from the borrower, lender, and the Department to the loan loss reserve account, which the lender can then withdraw from if the borrower defaults. The bill also appropriates $10 million for the program in fiscal year 2023 and authorizes the Department to adopt regulations to implement the program.
