Credit Crunch Intensifying For Small Businesses And Banks?

Back to blog

There is no such thing as a banker anywhere who has not become more careful in lending. This is apparently true worldwide and is the reason car sales, for instance, have fallen through the floor---not to mention nearly everything else.

It would be very frightening to be running a business right now if subject to going under at any minute when/ifif the lender pulls the credit line. Stomach churning indeed.
