How we’re making an impact
As part of our American Dream Initiative, we’re helping 10 million business owners over the next several years achieve their goals and strengthen their communities through our ecosystem of tools, resources, and policy advocacy.
Increasing Access to Capital at Every Stage of Growth
We support business owners at every stage of their journey, from basic banking needs like checking, savings, and credit cards to more complex services such as payments, lending, and cash management. We also work with community and mission-oriented partners to further extend our impact.
Providing Local Advice and Resources
We provide one-on-one coaching and technical assistance for small businesses and continue to expand our network of small business bankers and Senior Business Consultants so entrepreneurs nationwide can access the local expertise and support they need to grow.
Strengthening Local Commercial Corridors
We pilot revitalization programs along main streets in key communities, working with local partners and leveraging the firm's commercial real estate and home-lending expertise to drive neighborhood-level growth.
Connecting Small Businesses with Better Healthcare Alternatives
We provide resources to help small businesses navigate high and growing healthcare costs, including a dedicated resource center and continued investment in lower-cost alternative plans.
Helping Small Businesses Access Critical Supplier Programs
We connect small firms to supplier demand in priority sectors, helping qualified small businesses access defense and government supplier programs by leveraging firmwide relationships and contractor initiatives, streamlining requirements, and easing labor and working capital strain.
Advancing Policies that Support Entrepreneurship and Job Creation
We champion policies that increase capital and reduce red tape for small businesses. Smart, predictable policy unlocks capital and accelerates growth.
