  • Tax advantages: Temporary deferral of tax payments or reductions in tax rates to alleviate the financial burden on businesses.
  • Guarantees: Public guarantees enabling banks to provide loans to businesses, ensuring access to finance during the crisis.
  • Subsidized interest rates: Government support to reduce the interest rates on loans for businesses.

The aid measures are available to businesses of all sizes across various sectors, including self-employed individuals and non-profit organizations facing financial difficulties due to the pandemic.

How long will these measures be available?

The Temporary Framework was initially scheduled to be in operation until December 31, 2020. However, due to the ongoing impact of the pandemic, the European Commission has extended the availability of these measures until June 30, 2021. The extension provides further support to businesses during these challenging times.

What is the purpose of the Temporary Framework?

The primary purpose of the Temporary Framework is to ensure that businesses and countries can maintain their economic activities, preserve employment levels, and limit the long-term damage caused by the pandemic. By providing financial support and flexibility, the measures aim to stabilize the economy and facilitate its recovery.
