Emergency Aid Measures for Companies in the Coronavirus Crisis
The current coronavirus pandemic will hit the economy hard: current scenarios and forecasts predict a deep recession, the consequences of which will be all the more serious the longer the restrictions imposed on public life continue. Added to this is the collapse of global supply chains, which is hitting Germany particularly hard due to its high degree of involvement in the international division of labor. Against this backdrop, the country’s federal and state governments have decided on numerous aid measures for companies that have now found themselves in an emergency situation through no fault of their own.
Conference Series
With its events, the ifo Institute brings together scientists, decision-makers and opinion leaders and shapes the economic policy and scientific debate.

Every two years it hosted top-level government representatives, outstanding international academics, and high-ranking decision-makers from business, media, and civil society in Munich. The last MES took place in 2018.
