Italian SMEs saw their turnover drop by 420 billion (-13.5%) in 2020, due to the Covid crisis.
This is the estimate prepared by the Studies Office of the Cgia of Mestre.
"Net of the measures to support liquidity and the effects of the postponement of tax deadlines - says the coordinator of the Paolo Zabeo Research Office - the Government this year has allocated 29 billion euros of direct aid to companies affected by the pandemic. to say that in the face of a collapse in the turnover of the entire economic system of the country, about 420 billion, the coverage rate was close to 7%.
An insignificant impact, although the overall amount of the measures has the size of a budget ".
The total turnover of companies in Italy, the CGIA points out, is just over 3,100 billion;
a loss in revenues which in 2020 should be around 420 billion is equivalent to -13.5%.
