Independent Banker - July 2024 - 43

" Having lenders
who are focused
on an industry
instead of a
geography and
lending nationwide
opens up the
ability to scale
pretty quickly. "
-MIKE MCGINLEY, LIVE OAK BANK
with key players and organizations
in the fi eld and developed staff who
understood the business side of
veterinary practices.
" Nobody knows more about how
to run a vet clinic than our guys in
terms of staffi ng and metrics and this
and that, " Mahan says. " So, we take
industry expertise and have those
guys sit down with our credit guys,
[and] come up with a credit box to
tell the lenders, 'You go get that, and
the loan [will likely be] approved.' "
Using SBA data, Live Oak leaders
identifi ed other industries that
are generally a good credit risk
and could benefi t from the Live
Oak model. Today, the community
bank serves approximately 6,000
borrowers across more than 30
industries ranging from funeral
homes to independent pharmacies.
" The thought process was, you can
understand an industry and credit a
lot deeper if you have people focused
on the industry as opposed to on a
geography, " says Mike McGinley,
head of small business banking.
" Having lenders who are focused on
an industry instead of a geography
and lending nationwide opens up the
ability to scale pretty quickly. "
