Removing Financial Burden From Small Businesses

Online, June 23, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Nearly all business start-ups have at one time or another, experienced bumps on the road resulting in financial difficulties. Opportunity to succeed may not be all that easy to achieve if there is no financial assistance from external sources. While many banks in Australia respond to this need, small businesses often find banks criteria quite rigorous and time-consuming which small businesses cannot afford. They need to find alternative solutions for their additional cash requirements.

Figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics showed that there has been an increase of 1.4% on the value of total commercial finance commitments in March compared to February this year in trend terms while an increase of 2.3% on revolving credit commitments and 1.0% on fixed lending commitments were recorded for the same period.

A small business survey conducted by the CPA Australia Asia-Pacific in 2011 showed that only 30% of businesses had a business loan at the time of survey. The same percentage (30%) accounts for businesses that needed additional funds in the year to October 2011. Coverage for increasing expenses and business survival are the two main reasons for requiring the additional funding.

From the same survey, a much higher percentage of business owners had sought additional funding in 2011 compared to the year before, for the following reasons:

- Business survival
- Purchase of assets
- Coverage for tax payments

The percentage of businesses that sought additional funding to grow their businesses remained nearly unchanged from 2010. This may be taken as an indication of a shift in the financing priorities of small businesses from growth to survival. About one third of businesses that sought financial assistance reported difficulty in accessing additional funding mainly for lack of financier or financing institution with the willingness to provide additional funding to the business' industry.
