Opposes
Flat Ban on
'Se|f-DeaIinq'
BY the Associated Press


The Small Business Admin
istration has opposed any flat
ban on "self-dealing" transac-
tons between Small Business
Investment Companies and
firms they help to finance.
SBA Administrator Eugene
P. Foley said the problem can
be handled administratively
and said the agency would be
tough with persons respons-
ible for abuses" .~.
you will not find me hest
tant or squeamiSh in dealing
with violatorS." he told a Sen
ate Banking Subcommittee.
SBA regulations require ad-
vance clearance for financial
assistance extended by SBICS
to small firms, he said, when
ever any person enjoys a sig
nificant degree of ownership
or control in both parties to
the transaction"
Approval is given only those
proposals which promise to
promote the purposes of the
program" he added.
However, Mr.. Foley said that
to provide the industry and
the public with more informa-
ton about its operations the
SBA will make two changes in
its procedures.
l. It will publish the criteria
employed by the SBA in de-
Gliding whether IAN affiliated
transaction" should be per-
mitted. Q. It will make public
its rulings and the facts on
which they are based, without
disclosing the identity of the
person or firm involved.
The subcommittee is inquir-
ing into whether SBICS should
be prohibited from making
loans to small business firms
in which officers of the SBICS
have a personal stake or
whether full disclosure of such
transactions should be required.
James L. Paris, deputy adj
ministrator of SBA's invest
ment division, testified that
outstanding loans and invest
ments of this type approved by
the agency amount to only 1.6
per cent of the total SBIC fl
nancing on the books.
Since passage Of the SBIC
Act in 1858 to assist small
businesses in obtaining financ-
ing outside of regular banking
channels. he said, the SBA has
approved 146 of these applica-
tions totaling $9,776,597. He
said. % applications have been
denied.
