Does my bank have to approve a minority business federal grants application?

The minority business federal grants programs have certain criteria and mandates that must be met. The lending institution must follow these guidelines in respect to their approval of such loans.

What could you do for your small business if you were to obtain a grant or a loan of $5,000 or $50,000 or even more from the government?
