According to the Women's Business Enterprise National Council, women-led firms in the US grew by 58% since 2007, compared to businesses overall at 12%, while contributing over $3 trillion in economic impact. Women in Arizona own 45.3% of small businesses and there are currently 203,000 women-owned small businesses with no employees and 21,252 women-owned small businesses with employees. Loans to women make up only about 4% of all commercial loan dollars nationwide. A 2020 survey found that women are nearly 18% less likely to have their loan applications approved than men. When those loans are approved, they are on average about $5,000 less than for men at an average loan size of $43,916 for men compared to $38,942 average loan size for women. SBA data from August 2019 shows that only 28% of SBA loans went to women-owned businesses.
Elaine Szeto, Chief Innovation Officer and Founder at Integro Bank, stated "developing stronger support systems for women owned businesses creates a stronger workforce for Arizona and it creates the potential for generational change for Arizona's future."
