Small businesses make up 99.9% of all U.S. firms and contribute 44% to the nation's economic activity. When these businesses need financing, they frequently choose community banks, which provide over 60% of all small business loans under $1 million. According to Federal Reserve Bank studies, small businesses consistently prefer #communitybanks as their lending partners!

Take a min and watch this, there is a real misconception around lending to businesses - see below and let me know your thoughts.

Couldn't agree more with this sentiment. Community banks know the market their customers operate in, have a vested interest in supporting the community, and that's a win for small business owners. Community banks are vital to the success of small businesses and the communities they serve! #banking#communitybanking
While big banks increasingly shy away from small business loans, community banks continue to support entrepreneurs. As a business owner quoted in this Inc. Magazine article (link in comments) says, a community bank can get to know your business in a way a big bank can't: "They can understand your situations and can make direct decisions to approve lending that would not otherwise have been approved by the banking system." Community banks also know the market small businesses operate in and have a vested interest in supporting the community. That's a real win for small business owners! #communitybanking #banklocal #smallbusiness #smallbusinesslending #SBAlending

Hey, community bank friends....are you actively lending to small businesses? My guess is yes, but Kevin O'Leary keeps saying no one is lending to small and local businesses. Let me know! #banklocally #smallbusiness #communitybanking

I agree with Rebeca. Community banks 100% fill this role. Large banks tend to have gaps within their structure and certain threshold ranges that the structure falls within. Also, community banks are much better equipped to react to local market needs. For example, I live in a market with large agricultural borrowing needs. The large banks have mostly pulled out, but even while here, had neither the desire, expertise, or competence to fulfill the demand.
