A recent survey produced by Pepperdine University suggests that banks are approving more loans to private businesses compared to the previous year. The study points to a roughly 10% increase in approvals of business loans to these types of companies.
Considering the increased pressure put on banks by regulators, one could assume that this increase can be attributed to a rise in demand from strong credit-worthy companies that make up the “back-bone” of this economy. With an estimated 99% of the companies in the U.S. being privately held businesses, their successes is a great indicator on the health of the economy. Seeing increased approvals within this huge sector of the U.S. economy, may be a sign of great things to come on the economic horizon.
