Financial Supporting Mode for Small Businesses to Coup with COVID-19 Lockdown Restrictions

Small businesses have less liquidity and risk management capacity than large businesses. As such, they are more vulnerable for COVID-19 lockdown restriction impacts. Moreover, the failure of small businesses escalated into the entire economic collapse. Thereby, saving this sector can stabilize the impact of COVID-19 on economic as well as social crisis. In this regards, the study focused on the designing of financial supporting schemes that can prevent small businesses from failure in Ethiopia. Based on other countries' experiences and reviews of literature, four important components of financial supporting schemes were identified. They are COVID-19 based special loan to cover salary, rent, and other fixed cost; suspension of interest and principal payments; exemption of tax payment and social contribution; and loosening of financial requirements.
