SYRACUSE — NBT Bank is now a Small Business Administration (SBA) preferred lender.
The status allows NBT to approve SBA loans itself, which means faster service for small businesses. NBT can now work on the loans without prior SBA review in most cases.

This status will allow them to assist even more small businesses in communities where they have a presence.”
