In celebration of Small Business Month this May, the Consumer Bankers Association (CBA) has launched the “Small Business Spotlight 2025: Supporting Main Streets Across America” campaign. This initiative underscores the pivotal role that America’s leading retail banks play in empowering entrepreneurs and fostering community growth through the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) 7(a) loan program and various community initiatives.consumerbankers.com

Highlighting Bank Contributions to Small Businesses
The campaign features an interactive lending map that visualizes SBA 7(a) small business lending data across all 50 states. This tool showcases how CBA member banks contribute to the growth of small businesses and their communities, including the dollar amount of loans approved and the number of small business jobs supported. consumerbankers.com
CBA President and CEO Lindsey Johnson emphasized the importance of small businesses, stating, “Small businesses are the heartbeat of the American economy – fueling innovation, creating jobs, and supporting the communities they operate in each day.” She highlighted the commitment of retail banks to provide entrepreneurs with the necessary credit and capital to realize their business aspirations.
Resources and Stories from the Frontlines
The Small Business Spotlight campaign also includes a series of blogs and testimonials that tell the stories of how America’s leading retail banks assist Main Streets across the nation. These narratives provide insights into the resources, programs, and workshops offered by CBA members to support local small businesses and entrepreneurs.
Throughout May, CBA will disseminate this content through various channels, including blogs and social media platforms, to highlight the ongoing efforts of banks in supporting small business growth.consumerbankers.com
