- The New York Fed Visits Small Businesses (April 2011)

- Description
- Many small businesses continue to struggle even though the recession has officially ended. According to the 2010 FRBNY Small Business Finances Poll, conducted in August 2010, 75 percent of regional firms reported being unable to secure all the credit that they sought.
The most recent poll findings show how small businesses are financing their operations: 68 percent included bank credit as one of their top-three sources of financing. However, notable changes occurred between 2008 and 2010: reliance on bank credit increased, especially broader use of credit cards, while commercial bank loan use fell among all but the oldest firms.

Good morning. I am pleased to be back in Puerto Rico to speak to you and meet with various communities in the Commonwealth. Each visit gives me a chance to deepen the Bank's relationship with the island. Last year I visited La Cantera and met with community leaders, business people, academics, bankers and government officials. This year I visited Goya Foods—the oldest Hispanic-owned plant in our country with subsidiary facilities in my home state, New Jersey, and upstate New York. I will also meet with a similar wide range of people to talk about what we do and to hear first-hand the economic and financial issues important to Puerto Ricans so that I can best represent all my constituents in my work at the Fed.
