May or may not. I suppose you'd need to assess whether these loans are investments and, if not, whether it rises to the level of §162 trade or business by reviewing the kind of activities that are involved as well as whether these were regular, continuous, and substantial. You may also like to research this further for previous rulings and administrative guidance, if any.
