帮助美国小企业走目前的困境.docVIP

新华网华盛顿３月１６日电（记者 刘洪 胡芳）美国政府１６日公布一项计划，旨在通过采取一系列促进信贷等措施，帮助美国小企业走出目前的困境。根据这项计划，美国政府从７８７０亿美元经济刺激方案中划出７．３亿美元，用于降低小企业借贷成本，并将受小企业管理局贷款项目覆盖的所有贷款的担保比例提高至９０％。政府还将斥资１５０亿美元，解冻二级信贷市场；同时，政府还将要求接受政府救助的２１家美国大银行，每月报告给予小企业的信贷金额，以此促进金融企业向小企业提供更多信贷。 美国总统奥巴马当天表示，尽管许多小企业仍保持盈利，但信贷市场的停滞正使这些企业面临困境，政府此举则是促进小企业发展的第一步。 美国财政部当天也表示，美国新增就业岗位的７０％来自于小企业，美国政府将继续采取积极措施，确保小企业在美国经济复苏中发挥重大推动作用。 演讲全文： Thank you very much.?
