COVID-19 EFFECTS - BUSINESS REOPENING AND RECOVERY
The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are felt across all economies and no country or sector has been spared. ICPAU undertook a survey of its members in order to understand how businesses have been impacted particularly, how and when they envision reopening, and what they might need to aid their recovery. We are pleased to publish ‘COVID-19 Effects - Business reopening and recovery’, a report based on the survey.
Finding the silver lining …
The new normal is here. In a span of less than 6 months, life has transformed massively. COVID-19 has permeated every aspect of life, from business, to family and individual and the impact has largely been detrimental. The things we once took for granted: birthday parties, wedding celebrations, going to Church or the mosque, visiting a friend with a new born or even a casual jog with friends! These and many others are becoming all but distant memories.
