Up to 80% of SMEs hit by lack of liquidity, 100,000 may close for good if Covid crisis persists
About 70 to 80 per cent of small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are suffering from a lack of liquidity since the third Covid-19 wave hit Thailand in late March and 100,000 could close for good, warned Saengchai Theerakulwanich, president of the Federation of Thai SMEs, calling for urgent government help.
“The federation estimates that about 2.7 million small businesses and 400,000 medium enterprises are having trouble keeping their businesses afloat,” he said.
