The whole world is currently living under the effects and challenges posed by the pandemic, as everyone already knows. Economic activity has been suffering declines in production and consumption in all sectors, whether in industrial production, retail or services. The financial market and stock exchanges also felt the blow represented by Covid-19 and the quarantine measures.
In Brazil, the government was pressured to act with measures to mitigate the economic effects of the pandemic, calm the market, increase investor confidence, guarantee income, control unemployment rates and provide credit packages that guarantee cash flow and liquidity to companies of different sizes.
Therefore, ABES decided to organize the webinar NEW TIMES: Ensuring Business Competitiveness, on May 20, at 2:30 pm, giving space for representatives of important Federal Government bodies to explain the lines of credit offered, the policies to support innovation that continue, in addition to addressing the Ministry of Economy's vision and perspectives in relation to to this scenario.
