Stock Yards Bank & Trust Company ranked #128 nationally by SBA 7(a) loan volume in FY2025, a position that reflects a lender with meaningful but regionally concentrated activity rather than a top-tier national lending program. The bank's SBA lending activity in FY2025 was most concentrated in three states: Kentucky, where it approved 45 loans; Indiana, with 15 loans; and Ohio, with 7 loans. This distribution shows the bank's SBA lending footprint centers on its home state of Kentucky and neighboring states, consistent with a regional lending pattern rather than a nationwide one.
