Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically affected the financial health of businesses around the world. In general, large-scale economies and extensive organizational structures have survived the successive waves of the pandemic, while micro-, small-, and medium-sized enterprises have suffered the most. For most of them, the only form of aid was the government program that supported them during lockdowns. The time of the pandemic has shown that today, special attention should be paid to ensure the financial security of SMEs. Managers of this type of entities should build appropriate financial strategies that will minimize the risk of loss of financial liquidity and corporate bankruptcies. It is worth using appropriate methods, tools, and strategies that will allow one to build a certain security buffer.
This Special Issue of JRFM aims to present original research papers and review articles that present relevant methods, tools, and management systems that, when applied for SMEs, will have a positive impact on their financial security. The authors should investigate and present solutions that will allow managers to build strategies to ensure the financial security of SMEs.
