Survey on Financing and Growth of Small and Medium Enterprises, 2017
The 2017 Survey on Financing and Growth of Small and Medium Enterprises was designed to determine the types of financing used by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and to collect information on recent attempts by SMEs to obtain new financing. In addition, the survey gathers data on SMEs’ growth activities and on business owner characteristics.
The 2017 survey questionnaire was adapted from questionnaires used for previous iterations of the Survey on Financing and Growth of Small and Medium Enterprises (2011 and 2014), and from questionnaires used for the Survey on Financing of Small and Medium Enterprises (2000, 2004 and 2007).
