Context

The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) was passed by congress to give relief to businesses negatively impacted by Covid-19 in order to maintain pay for employees. The program gives forgivable loans to businesses that continue paying employees during the pandemic. The PPP quickly ran out of funds, limiting which businesses received relief. Some controversy around the program arose from large, publicly traded companies applying for and receiving PPP funds while many small businesses were unable to access relief.

The number of community banks in the United States has fallen from more than 13,000 in the mid-1980s to less than 5,000 today. These community-focused banks have consolidated mainly as a result of competitive pressures. Research shows that community banks are essential to maintaining economically fruitful communities, and losing these banks could be a significant blow to local infrastructure.

One example of the importance of community banks was their role in distributing Paycheck Protection Program (PPP)1 loans during the Covid-19 pandemic. The PPP was designed to help small businesses keep their workers employed during the pandemic by providing funds through a short-term loan backed by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Preliminary research by CSBS shows that state-chartered banks were the primary distributor of PPP loans, and that community banks played an outsized role in the distribution of PPP funds.

CSBS is providing complete loan-level PPP data [available here (full file, 300MB), here (sample data) and here (data definitions)] that combines the publicly available files made available on sba.gov. To allow for analysis on depository institutions, CSBS will also be adding FDIC Certificate numbers to this file. When the institution is a bank, the FDIC Certificate number will allow participants to link the PPP data to the quarterly Call Report of Income and Condition, which can be accessed here. CSBS is also providing a sample dataset that can be updated and examined in Excel. Questions regarding the data can be sent to data@csbs.org.
