Know any small business leaders or owners? Tell them about this: All 12 Federal Reserve Banks, including ours, are collecting responses to this year’s Small Business Credit Survey (SBCS) as part of our role in supporting a strong economy. Every year, the Fed conducts this nationwide survey to gather insights into business and credit conditions. Findings from the SBCS are used by policy makers and service providers as they make decisions about policies and programs that affect small businesses. The annual 10-12-minute survey is open to for-profit businesses currently in operation, those recently closed, and those about to be established. By taking the survey, business leaders and owners contribute to data that directly inform the Fed, federal government agencies, service providers, policymakers, and others, ultimately benefiting their businesses and others in the community. The survey closes November 14, 2025. Don’t delay! https://atlfed.org/47gHHQ1. #SmallBiz #SmallBusinessCreditSurvey
