OUR APPROACH TO IMPACT

Small Business Growth

Helping business owners access tools and resources to help achieve their goals and prosper in their communities.

Small businesses are the backbone of the economy. Their success lends itself to stronger communities by creating new jobs, driving local economic growth, and offering residents more options and opportunities.

As the nation’s leading small business bank, we’re proud to serve more than six million small businesses. Across communities, from small towns to big cities, we offer resources to help business owners overcome obstacles through mentorship, training and access to capital that can support their growth plans. 

Capital

Supporting access to a continuum of capital options at every stage of growth.

Connections

Making connections to expertise and guidance that can help overcome obstacles.

Customers

Promoting access to new customers and networks that can help create sustained growth.

Featured Initiatives

We’re helping expand access to credit in majority Black, Hispanic and Latino communities. The first of its kind program offers opportunity to business owners who might not otherwise be approved for credit or receive it on less favorable terms. 

Educational Resources


In 2023, we launched a new resource center that provides educational content and advice to help early-stage and established entrepreneurs achieve their goals.
