Recovery and SBA failure in Katrina aftermath explored
An Associated Press investigation shows widespread SBA mismanagement after Katrina and Rita. Data reveal 55 percent of applicants were turned away, only 60 percent of approved funds disbursed, and 357 million dollars not repaid. Wealthier areas and white districts saw faster processing and higher approval rates, while poorer and black communities faced greater obstacles and slower outcomes.
