The article points out that alternative financing options, such as online lenders, crowdfunding, and peer-to-peer lending, offer more flexible terms and quicker access to funds.

Additionally, the piece notes that banks are shifting their focus towards larger, more established companies, further reducing their appeal to small businesses.
