Legal help in case of liquidation or bankruptcy for business owners
The estimate is ominous, but it was these companies that suffered the strongest blow from the Covid-19 pandemic in the country. This prediction was made by the Consumer Protection Association in Bulgaria. It is not much different from those in other European countries and around the world. The percentage varies according to the force with which the pandemic has hit each individual country.
Every fifth micro or small company is expected to go bankruptcy by the end of the year, according to the Consumer Protection Association.
Bulgarian business is based and developed by such businesses. 90% are small and micro firms. Government assistance should be targeted at these companies, because they have suffered and continue to suffer the brunt of the pandemic. The contraction of production and turnover will lead not only to bankruptcies, but also to high unemployment due to the forced dismissals of employees in these enterprises. Rescue measures were delayed or not targeted at all at small and micro businesses.
The turmoil from the closure of these enterprises is yet to be felt in full force in Bulgaria
After the initial strict quarantine, the companies started working, but only at 50% of the turnover before the pandemic. In the big cities the situation is the worst. Entire malls and shopping areas on central streets are closing because traders go bankrupt one after another.
Then comes the problem with collection companies, which charge interest on non-transparent terms. Legal fees and other costs are added.

According to the government
According to the government, their anti-crisis measures are available mainly to medium and large enterprises. This implies an increase in intercompany indebtedness to continue to grow and increase arrears. Until recently, they were delayed by an average of two months. Thus, eternal indebtedness continues growing.
The liquidity crisis has hit entire sectors in Bulgaria
According to the Consumer Protection Association, the Transport, Automotive, Textile, Tourism, Construction and Metals sectors have been hit hardest by the liquidity crisis.
