在冠状病毒19肆虐期间,今年4月共有8千663家商业实体结业,比起三月增加了一倍。

据本地英语财经媒体《商业时报》报导,上个月的数字不仅是近年来新高,对比2003年SARS疫情、2009年金融危机同期倒闭商企的数量,也高出一倍。

2003年SARS疫情下,同期倒闭商企个体也不到2500家,金融危机时期同期也少过4000家。

《商业时报》是透过本地商业资讯服务BizInsights获得数据。今年三月份,倒闭商家多达4008家。

单在今年4月,其中有多达403家结业商企,都是来自餐饮领域。至于结业的零售服务则有918家。

而在4月份新创立的商企个体,则有3千767家。

经济学家提醒,若阻断措施结束,政府削减对大多数行业的补助、也取消对贷款偿债的冻结,担忧有更多企业会不堪重负面临结业。

若全球疫情未有改善,旅游、出国公干减少,跟旅游业相关的前线企业也会继续受到冲击。
