Supporting small businesses
Policymakers need to adapt policies and institutions to enable small businesses to make a greater contribution to post-pandemic economic revival. In an effort to aid in the COVID-19 recovery, micro, small, and medium companies (MSMEs) must have more assistance because of their inventive and enterprising character. Post-COVID-19 social and economic recovery assistance must be designed with the mission's goals in mind.

Sustainable development
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is a global roadmap that prioritizes peace and prosperity for both people and the earth for decades to come. It was agreed upon by all United Nations Member States in 2015. It is clear to everyone that there are no more excuses: We must go to work right away. We are in a state of global emergency, with no room for personal concerns or individual preferences. All nations must join together to solve our problems.
stimulating an entrepreneurial spirit
The Akkad Center for Economic and Financial Studies supports the efforts made to enhance the role of entrepreneurship and micro, small and medium enterprises, with a special focus on youth projects and projects that empower women economically, which depends on a unique behavioral approach to developing entrepreneurial capabilities. MARCO also encourages studies related to entrepreneurship and MSMEs to join the market to facilitate their contribution to recovery after COVID-19 in the MSME sector.
Women’s economic empowerment
The Akkad Center for Economic and Financial Studies seeks to enhance opportunities for women and men to benefit from economic growth. Many researchers consider that women have a greater ability to succeed because of their gender, but this is only possible if the woman has a higher education or a good job. This means that a woman must receive equal treatment with a man if she is to contribute.
Investment attraction
Foreign direct investment (FDI) in developing countries has a bad reputation. In some discussions, it is presented as tantamount to postcolonial exploitation of raw materials and cheap labour. However, recent data shows that FDI in developing countries increasingly flows to medium and high-skilled manufacturing sectors, involving elevated income levels. What’s more, many emerging economies have built their growth on FDI flows.
