The CalCAP programs incentivize participating financial institutions (PFIs) to make loans for a wide array of small business borrower (SBB) financing needs, as well as very specific small business capital needs. The original California Capital Access Program, now known as CalCAP for Small Business, began in 1994. Currently there are five programs active under the CalCAP umbrella, two of which are part of SSBCI 2.0. The CalCAP programs use two different mechanisms, loan loss reserve and collateral support, to help build a safety net for PFIs when they do the important work of making capital available to SBBs.
