According to a General Electric (GE) Capital Survey of 495 Chief Financial Officers (CFOs) at firms with annual sales volume of $50 million to one billion, 67 percent are predicting revenue growth and 74 percent anticipate hiring workers this year. BloombergNews tells MHProNews.com 94 percent of the CFOs predict the economy will grow or at least remain stable. Dan Henson, CEO of GE Capital, Americas, who oversees commercial lending and leasing, says, “Our customer base continues to become more profitable, which supports the view of these CFOs that we’re on more stable footing.” Only seven percent of CFOs say credit availability has decreased over the past year.
