Capital Access Program (CAP)

Connects SSBCI-funded credit enhancement NH small businesses participating banks not a grant.

CAP is NH BFA's deployment of federal SSBCI 2.0 funds as a credit enhancement for small businesses. Applications are submitted by participating lenders — not businesses directly — with BFA approving typically within 24 hours. The program covers up to 100% guarantee on term loans and lines of credit, capped at $500,000 total enrollment per borrower. This is a loan/credit-enhancement instrument, not a grant. It is listed here for catalog completeness per the slug scope, but Pass C decision: loan_not_grant — no grant rounds emitted.

Each grant below is a distinct funding opportunity with its own eligibility, scope, and deliverables.
