Regarding economic measures to be formulated by the government in response to the spread of the new coronavirus, the Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry has summarized urgent requests to take unprecedented measures to prevent bankruptcy and closure of SMEs.

This was revealed on the 30th by a press conference by the Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry President Mimura.

An urgent request stated that the management of small and medium-sized businesses was in a critical situation, and that unprecedented economic measures were needed to prevent bankruptcy and business closure. We are calling for the creation of a bold benefit system that includes the following benefits, and strengthening the response of financial institutions so that interest-free and unsecured loans can be made promptly.

A wide range of support for employment and households, including further relaxation of the requirements for the provision of employment adjustment subsidies to maintain employment, and provision of benefits to child-raising households as a measure to stimulate personal consumption. I'm asking.

At a press conference, Mr. Mimura said in a press conference, "Suppression of consumption has been completely cut off, and it is expected that the effects on the economy will be prolonged. It is difficult to normalize the economy without measures of scale and content that counteract such effects. But first, you need to take action on small and medium-sized companies with limited financial resources. "
