What's inside
Six myths, six replacements.
Myth 1
"Playing It Safe Is Playing It Smart."
In 2026, standing still is the riskiest move a commercial lender can make.
Myth 2
"Our Current Tech Does What We Need."
Fine is expensive. Where cycle time actually lives — and how to fix it.
Myth 3
"All Vendor Support Is Basically the Same."
Support isn't a nice-to-have in lending operations. It's part of the production system.
Myth 4
"AI Is Either Everything or Too Risky."
Both extremes lead to paralysis. The truth — and the governance framework — lies between them.
Myth 5
"SBA Lending Is Just Like Any Commercial Loan."
SBA volume just hit a 16-year high. The lenders treating it like standard commercial are creating post-close risk.
Myth 6
"We Need One Vendor for All Lending Types."
Consolidation looks like simplicity. In practice, it creates single points of failure and forced-fit workarounds.
