The ancient Chinese warrior Sun Tzu taught his men to "know your adversary" before going into battle. For if "you know your adversary and know yourself," he wrote, "you need not fear the result of a hundred battles." But, Sun Tzu warned, "If you know yourself but not the adversary, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat."
So, as part of our objective to try and even out the playing field – or, battleground for those with an SBA loan default and need some background information, we will be posting videos, articles and commentary on some of the tactics and strategic mental impressions that lenders (and their lawyers), the CDC, the SBA and the DOT consider when dealing with an SBA loan default so that you can "know your adversary."
Hopefully, by “knowing your SBA adversary," small business borrowers, obligors and SBA personal guarantors can gain some leverage when dealing with an SBA loan default.
In this video clip, the Coleman Report representative discusses common problems and simple solutions regarding SBA loans and bankruptcy with a lawyer who represents lenders and bankers with their SBA loan issues.
