Impact of COVID-19 on Businesses
Explanation:
The global economy has dealt a severe blow due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Many businesses all over the world have been in a free-fall since March. This is due to the quarantine measures ordered by several governments causing business shutdowns, travel restrictions, lost revenue, staff layoffs and disrupted supply chains. Uncertainty about the outbreak’s trajectory remains the biggest obstacle in visualizing any signs of recovery. Businesses from all walks of life are hemorrhaging cash as the COVID-19 pandemic sweeps the globe. Receivables are being delayed, stock is stagnant, raw materials are not procured, manufacturing is stalled, staff are laid off, no sales of processed good, so there is no inflow of cash into any business. Government stimulus payments are expected to keep economic activity ticking during this hibernation period, providing some hope.
