“The recovery and resilience plan must be submitted to the European Commission because its contents can be altered afterwards but the deadline can’t,” Radosvet Radev, President of the Bulgarian Industrial Association (BIA) said in an interview with bTV.
He commented that there is a sense of mild optimism among businesses because of the mass vaccination which will lead to better working conditions. However, the economy is expected to recover no earlier than the end of 2022. According to a BIA survey, 74% of the respondents, representing businesses in the country, say that new measures are needed to assist them. As to the banking moratorium, 54% say that they will find it difficult to service their debts, 79% say they see no improvement in the economic indexes.
“At the moment an entrepreneur’s best defence is to do nothing and postpone investments,” Radosvet Radev said.
