In December 2022, SBA implemented a final rule that adjusts monetary-based industry size standards (i.e., receipts and assets) for inflation that occurred since 2014. The rule implements three main actions: (i) adding an additional 13.65% inflation increase to the monetary small business size standards; (ii) adjusting three program-specific monetary size standards to account for inflation; and (iii) adjusting for inflation the economic disadvantage thresholds applicable to two separate programs.
