Modus Research: Canadian Businesses Are Much More Optimistic About Long-Term Survival Than in the Spring
Canadian businesses are much more optimistic about survival
The number of businesses expecting to survive more than two years has more than doubled since the spring.
TORONTO, Nov. 24, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The latest findings from The Business Monitor, which surveyed of over 1,000 Canadian managers and executives, show a big upswing in business leaders’ expectations for long-term survival from early stages of the pandemic in the spring.
The number of businesses expecting to survive more than two years has more than doubled.
In April, 43% of Canadian businesses did not think they could survive more than six months. This number has now plummeted to just 13%, suggesting a high level of adaptation to the pandemic and its effects.
Notably, there is a progressive increase in expectations for long-term survival with company size from 44% for micro-sized businesses (<10 employees) to over two-thirds for large organizations (500+ employees), respectively. Over half of small to mid-sized companies (56%) expect to survive for two years or more.
While expectations for long-term survival vary, there is no variation across company size in terms of short-term demise.
