Support mechanisms adopted so far by the Polish government, consisting of the so-called anti-crisis shield, turn out to be insufficient from the perspective of the needs of the entrepreneurs who are suffering the negative economic consequences of the COVID-19 epidemic.

The aim of the programme, implemented through the Polski Fundusz Rozwoju S.A. (PFR), is, in particular, to protect the labour market and ensure financial liquidity for entrepreneurs in the period of serious economic disruption. The assumed cost of the programme implementation is PLN 100 billion.
