The plan announced would allow eligible community banks and other financial institutions to receive new capital at a lower dividend rate, enabling them to increase their lending to and support of local businesses. This means a lot to the composites industry where the majority of manufacturers are small businesses that have been hard hit during the current economic recession."

Raising the loan size cap on 7(a) loans and 504 project loans will go a long way to ensuring these small businesses can expand as well as survive. By increasing the size of SBA microloans, the President's plan would encourage the development of many innovative new composites businesses."
