AFIA members, including various SME lenders, are actively working with their clients to assess individual circumstances and offer tailored financial solutions. Businesses in sectors heavily reliant on fuel, such as transport and agriculture, are particularly impacted and are encouraged to engage with their lenders early to discuss available support options.

This coordinated effort underscores the importance of proactive communication between SMEs and financial institutions. By addressing cash flow issues promptly, businesses can navigate the current economic challenges more effectively, ensuring continuity and stability in their operations.

SMEs are advised to stay informed about available support measures and to reach out to their financial providers to explore solutions tailored to their specific needs during this period of fuel market volatility.
