The business pulse survey (BPS) in Madagascar, conducted by the Madagascar National Statistical Agency (INSTAT) with technical and financial support from the World Bank, provides information to monitor the effects of the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on businesses, better tailor interventions, and inform policy dialogue. Two waves of the survey have so far been conducted. A first wave with 943 interviewed firms took place in June to July 2020 during a partial lockdown. A second wave with 1,994 firms was conducted between December 2020 and February 2021, after the lockdown and a state of health emergency was lifted. This note presents key findings from both waves.
