Paycheck Protection Program
The Paycheck Protection Program is a loan designed to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers on the payroll. On December 27, 2020, the President signed into law a bill that provides an additional $284B of funding for the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and extends the program through March 31, 2021. Investar's staff is working diligently to process applications to meet the SBA's deadlines. We are no longer accepting new applications at this time. If you have an application in process, please contact your local banker for assistance. Click here to learn more.
