WE NEED YOUR INSIGHTS: SMALL BUSINESS CREDIT SURVEY
Owners and key financial decisionmakers of for-profit businesses, share your recent experiences. Did your business seek financing such as loans or lines of credit in the last 12 months? How would you rate the financial condition of your business?
The Federal Reserve’s 2022 Small Business Credit Survey is open for responses, and NAFOA is a partner on this effort. By taking the survey, you contribute to data that directly informs the Fed, federal government agencies, service providers, policymakers, and others—ultimately benefitting your business and other businesses like yours. Take the 10-minute survey now.
The survey is open to businesses currently in operation, those recently closed, and those about to launch. All responses are confidential.
The survey closes November 4, 2022. Questions? Contact Grace Guynn at grace.guynn@atl.frb.org
