Abstract

An analysis of a sample of nearly 180,000 SMEs exposed to the health crisis shows that the vast majority of companies that took on debt in 2020 kept some of this money in cash. In the context of the gradual phasing out of government support, we also assess the extent to which businesses will be able to meet their debt obligations depending on their level of activity. L’analyse d’un échantillon de près de 180 000 PME confrontées à la crise sanitaire montre que la très grande majorité de celles ayant contracté de la dette en 2020 a en partie conservé ces fonds en trésorerie. Dans un contexte de retrait progressif des aides gouvernementales, nous évaluons également dans quelle mesure les entreprises pourront faire face à leur dette en fonction de leur niveau d’activité.
