FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. LL 0574-1
2018 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
This legislation amends the Microloan Revolving Loan Fund program to increase the maximum loan term from 6 years to
15 years and amends the minimum interest rate from 6.00% to 4.00%.
For loans of more than $35.0, the applicant must provide documentation that they have been denied a loan from a
financial institution within Alaska, or that a loan from a financial institution is contingent on the applicant receiving the a
loan from the fund. The bill also requires a reasonable amount of nonstate funds be used for the project or enterprise.
Collateral must be acceptable to the Commissioner and loans cannot be made to applicants with pastdue child support.
The legislation will facilitate the start up and expansion of small and micro businesses to promote Alaska employment. It
allows for the adjustment of monthly payments to match small business cash flow needs.
If this legislation were to pass a regulations project would be required; the minimal costs associated can be absorbed by
current budgetary authorization. There is no anticipated fiscal impact to the Division of Economic Development from this
bill.
