small business loans how to qualify
While minority owned firms now account for more than 20 percent of businesses, they remain relatively small, employing only around 5 percent of the nation's employees. The vast majority of small businesses are seeded with the personal or family savings of the founder. While the scale may differ, the reliance of savings differs little across ethnic groups. Reliance on home equity and credit cards, important sources of start up capital, also display only minor differences across race, with minorities being slightly more dependent on credit cards and whites more often tapping home equity. As inflation and record low interest rates reduced the returns to savings, this decline may explain some of the dramatic fall in new business creations. The long run trend decline in savings has been accompanied by a similar decline in entry rates among small businesses. However, non bank lending is becoming an increasingly important source of capital. In fact, non bank finance companies currently comprise about 15 percent of small business lending and are better positioned for growth in this market than commercial banks. One prominent peer to peer lender, Lending Club, has seen its small lending business double every year since 2007, having made more than 16,000 small business loans. While only one player in a small market, the attractive yields offered by peer to peer lenders — coupled with a more flexible regulatory environment — offer considerable potential for small business lending. Peer to peer has also offered a valuable source of loans for borrowers with less than stellar credit.
