The Senate Committee on Small Business & Entrepreneurship has published a small business owner’s guide to the CARES Act, including explanations of the different programs that are now available, answering some common questions about the programs, and including links and references to counseling training for small businesses.
A one-page document outlining the Paycheck Protection Program, which will be commonly referred to as the PPP, is available by clicking here. During a webinar hosted by AccountsRecovery.net yesterday, there were a lot of questions about the PPP and how it can help companies in the credit and collection industry. Listen to a recording of the presentation from Tom Good of Baron & Newburger by clicking here.
