Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Impact of Covid-19: SME Recovery

Mr. John A. Moran:

I will try to keep it simple. If we imagine that everybody got €25,000 as a loan today and in phase 2, which comes relatively rapidly afterwards, we work out the losses of those firms, the firm that has €7,000 of losses would not have to repay €7,000 of the €25,000 loan.
