loan office

Where borrowers apply

A loan office is a place where loans are arranged and administered.

The term applies to storefronts offering personal loans, mortgage lending departments, and government agencies that process student loans or small business financing.

In American colonial history, loan offices were provincial institutions that issued paper currency backed by land.
