Financial services hit the headlines this week as Alastair Darling urged British banks to lend more to small firms - it’s an ongoing issue but he’s raised it again.
This is a massive PR challenge for the industry… somehow the banks need to work out how to manage the conflicting demands of rebuilding their balance sheets and freeing up funds to lend to good businesses. Then they need to communicate to their stakeholders that they’re making every effort to improve the supply of credit to UK firms. It’s no coincidence that RBS’ new ad campaign focuses on the same issue of lending to SMEs. There are no easy answers… expect this one to run and run.
