Will the new temporary measures brought in by the Government help businesses avoid failure as a result of Covid-19? - Solicitors Journal

The Bank of England has forecast that the UK economy will shrink by 14% in 2020, representing the worst recession in 300 years. The current pandemic has had a devastating impact on businesses of all sizes, on a scale not seen since the Great Recession of 2006 to 2009. 

It has been widely reported that businesses in the retail, travel and leisure sectors have had their profits decimated by the pandemic. Business clients will be anxious to understand how they should proceed during these uncertain times.
