The Federal Reserve has begun collecting responses to this year’s Small Business Credit Survey. As an official survey partner, we’re distributing the survey to for-profit businesses currently in operation, those recently closed, and those about to launch.

By taking the survey, business owners and leaders contribute to data that directly informs the Fed, federal government agencies, service providers, policymakers, and others—a public good ultimately benefitting their business and other businesses like theirs. The survey closes November 1, 2024.

We’re proud to help amplify the voices of US small businesses. You can help by taking the survey (or sharing it with others) today: https://bit.ly/4gbkZLp
