Small Firm Credit Market Discrimination, SBA-Guaranteed Lending, and Local Market Economic Performance

Craig, Ben R. - 2007

We empirically test whether SBA-guaranteed lending has a greater impact on economic performance in markets with a high percentage of potential minority small businesses. This hypothesis is predicated on priors related to three overlapping assumptions. These three assumptions are: (1) The classic...
