Graph of the effect of receiving COVID-19 aid on firm's turnover, by size, in Spain and Italy. Micro-firms were helped more than medium and large firms. The unprecedented wave of state aid to firms across the EU during the COVID-19 pandemic raised questions about who benefited and how effective these interventions were. This column uses firm-level data from Spain and Italy – two of the countries worst affected by the pandemic – to evaluate the economic impact of aid. Targeted support for micro and small firms increased revenues and investment but had little impact on medium and large firms’ performance. Crisis support should focus on the most vulnerable businesses, and broad subsidies to large firms scrutinised.
Targeted support for micro and small #firms during the #pandemic increased revenues and investment but had little impact on medium and large firms' performance.
