Survey on Financing of Small and Medium Enterprises, 2007

Question


I know this has just been released, but any possibility of getting this or previous years through the DLI? I have an SME researcher that I know will be asking.

Answer
This is another survey for which no standard data products were released. I have asked the author division if they are willing to provide the DLI with any cross-tabulations and will keep you posted.

***
The contact for this survey explained that aggregate data is available upon request, free of charge, from the division. However, it is also being made available through Industry Canada's website. I checked their site and found the following under the "SME Financing Data Initiative" section of the site:

Anyone can request the data (free of charge, in PDF or Excel formats) for 2000, 2001, 2004 and 2007 through this site, which also contains other information on SME Financing that may be of interest to your researcher.
