The government should ensure that stimulus funds for the cottage, micro, small and medium enterprises (CMSMEs) are quickly disbursed in order to facilitate sustainable recovery from the Covid-19 fallouts, according to speakers at a webinar on Sunday.
The event, styled “Impact of Covid-19 on CMSMEs and Understanding their Recovery: Evidence from BSCIC Industrial Estates”, was jointly organised by Economic Reporters’ Forum (ERF) and PRISM Programme.
While speaking as chief guest, Industries Minister Nurul Majid Mahmud Humayun said the CMSMEs were the worst affected by the pandemic even though the government had announced a Tk 20,000 crore stimulus package for the sector.
