A new report from the Filene Research Institute explores the opportunity for credit unions to form lasting partnerships with small business through microlending.

The report, "Microloan Feasibility Study: Can Small Business Lending Become Big Business For Credit Unions?" is authored by Dave Grace, managing partner of Dave Grace & Associates, and former senior vice president of the World Council of Credit Unions.
