Event 23. June 2021 Sandra Parthie livestream debate (via Zoom): Corporate finance – How to steer the transformation after the Covid crisis?

A broad policy response has alleviated the repercussions on European SMEs and corporates, albeit to a limited extent. Importantly, policymakers have already phased out some temporary support measures and will likely continue to do so in the near to medium term.
