BDC undertook the first-ever Canadian study on the use of advisory boards by small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs). The study describes how advisory boards work in these businesses and quantitatively demonstrates that SMEs that use them have superior growth and better financial results.

In fact, 86% of leaders believe that having an advisory board has had a significant impact on the success of their business. Areas of impact most often cited are company vision, innovation, risk management and profitability.

Canadian SMEs with advisory boards perform better financially than those without advisory boards.
