In these days, The mass of information surrounding the much famous Decree was remarkable “Cure Italy”, launched by the government for the current health emergency and given the numerous reflections that has aroused, We tried to make some clarity thanks to the contribution by those who can every day can “tap” The entrepreneurial situation that currently involves us. We thank the Dr. Alexander praised, registered in the Order of Accountants of Salerno, for answering the questions that most prominent in these days. We start from an analysis of the entrepreneurial situation we are experiencing, Which, in his opinion, It is the greatest difficulty that commercial activities have to face? As for the current entrepreneurial situation, The impact of the Coronavirus is causing a drop in revenues and profit margins of companies. With the closure imposed on most of the businesses, There is also a total reset of revenues, For a period that, At present, it is not easily determinable. The sectors that pay the highest scotto in this historical moment are, undoubtedly, the tourist and commercial one, In particular, bar and catering activities, but also the artisan sector, in which the most penalized are, among others, Hairdressers, beauticians and pastry chefs. The greatest difficulty that companies are facing is the lack of liquidity, which involves impossibility to fulfill all bonds in the short-medium period, like debts to suppliers, The dense and salaries to employees. Going specifically, believes that, From a point of view above all fiscal, The Italian Cura Decree is sufficient to ferry this crisis towards a solution? The "Cura Italia" decree, of course, tried to remedy the situation that came to create. The government has launched a maxi-decrease from 25 billions of euros with financial rules and measures to contain the health and economic emergency unleashed by the Coronavirus, of which 10 billions at work and beyond 3 billions for healthcare. The securities of the provision are mainly concentrated on income support and work, Welfare and social safety nets, liquidity for families and businesses, Suspension and postponement of taxes and taxes, incentives for production activities, simplifications, hiring and investments in the P.A. in particular in the National Health Service. With this maneuver the government estimates to arrive at the 3,3 percent net debt in relation to GDP. Naturally, This estimate depends on the level of GDP (nominal) which will be reached at the end 2020 e, more precisely, from the impact of the emergency on the economy as well as by the positive effects of the measures put in place. Of course, in my opinion, It will be necessary to intervene further from April to integrate the transitory provisions partly provided as one -offs and, therefore, not repeatable on a monthly basis. What are the measures that most appreciate the decree and in which, possibly, it is missing? The decree intervenes with measures on four main fronts. The first is the financing and other measures for the strengthening of the national health system, of the Civil Protection and other public entities engaged on the emergency front. The second is support for employment and workers for the defense of work and income. The third provides for credit support for families and micro, small and medium -sized enterprises, through the banking system and the use of the central guarantee fund. In the end, The last is the suspension of payment obligations for taxes and contributions as well as other tax obligations and tax incentives for the sanitization of the workplace and prizes to employees who remain in service.
In some areas the decree will certainly be effective. First of all for employees, to which the earnings layoff was guaranteed, also in derogation, for a maximum of 9 weeks and also the so -called blocking of layoffs from 23/02/2020, so that as several times by the Prime Minister Conte: "Nobody has to lose their job". On the other hand, only, I highlight little attention to self -employed workers in general, to which small resources have been addressed. The case of freelancers enrolled in private speakers are paradoxical, for which no interventions have been foreseen if not postponing the tax deadlines. In his opinion, The economic recovery of what will need more and for how long the effects will be felt on trade? The current economic crisis should present all its intensity in this first half 2020, To then recover and recover from the second half of the year. In practice, the first signs of recovery should know them already starting from the first summer months. This will occur, only, Provided that the coronavirus is eradicated or in any case ceases its virulent intensity already starting from late spring. Will be, so, it is necessary to implement, since now, An extraordinary program of public investments and industrial policy. In my opinion, for the trade sector, il 2020 It will be a year of transition. Difficult to establish how long the effects of this crisis will be felt. First we must achieve the goal of stopping this epidemic, Then you can think of the recovery and also of an estimate of the recovery times. In the end, from one of his personal point of view, What hopes for the future? Our future will be conditioned by national choices, but also from the evolution of European policy and the indispensable international agreements to face the world crisis due to Covid19. However, there are encouraging signals by European governance that, After the first hesitations of the past few days, He seems to want to provide individual states affected by the pandemic, all support of policies even monetary now more than ever necessary to overcome this difficult moment for the economy. We have to, Therefore, be confident that after this difficult moment of darkness, Our country will raise itself.
