The political magazine “Zur Sache Rheinland-Pfalz Extra“ broadcasted on the German TV station SWR on 2 April 2020 reported on the effects of the Cornavirus Crisis on our federal state of Rhineland-Palatinate. During their segment “Corona – Economic Impact”, Jola’s managing director Lars Mattil explained as a mid-size company from the Palatinate” that he considers direct aid for small to medium size companies as a currently appropriate measure:

„If there were public money now, […] that was easily accessible, that would not have to be repaid as a credit, it would be of tremendous help. It would be a sign demonstrating speed and it would, indeed, help to get through this situation.“
