External Assistance And EU Policy And Government's Shield

The vast majority of respondents say the anti-inflation shield is helpful. The shield comprised temporary cuts in indirect taxes, addressed mainly to households. However, most companies (63%) find the anti-inflation shield helps only slightly, and only 15% feel that it does not help at all.
Does the anti-inflation shield help your company?
Most companies are quite sceptical about the effectiveness of EU policies in dealing with the energy crisis. 44% of companies do not believe that EU policies can contain the crisis but do note the potential for good solutions within them. One in ten companies are strongly critical and see EU policies as a pause button rather than a firm solution for dealing with the crisis. Slightly rarer are the companies that view EU policies more positively and with more hope (a total of 36%, of which 6% believe in EU policies without reservations. The remaining 30%, however, would make changes).
