The Business Continuity Support Program has been designed based on the Royal Directives of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, to unite the national efforts in combating the economic repercussions caused by the global spread of the Coronavirus, by offering financial support to SMEs, helping them cover part of their operating expenses.
The program was launched in March 2020 and the support was extended in five phases for sectors affected most by the repercussions of the pandemic. Furthermore, the program expanded its circle of beneficiaries to include taxicab and bus drivers, driving instructors, and kindergarten workers.
