The government of Bahrain has taken unprecedented efforts to mitigate the effects of lower oil prices and the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The significant actions taken by the government since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic ensured business continuity and mitigate the effects on the economy by deferral of individuals and business loans, launch of support programs to support Bahraini enterprises and salary support to Bahrainis working in the private sector.
Bahrain aims to further strengthen the national economy with the fiscal balance program to achieve a balanced budget by 2022. The program will strengthen the kingdom's fiscal and economic foundation to guarantee sustainable economic growth and to utilise national resources in a way that benefits citizens and future generations.
