Data and method

Totals come from SBA's PPP loan-level file (FOIA release of 2024-09-30); ranks are among its 4,688 named originating lenders. Modeled fees are computed loan by loan from SBA's published fee schedule, because SBA never published what it paid each lender. Jobs are self-reported; dollars are approved, not disbursed; the totals leave out 39 source rows. The per-lender totals page has the full method.
