Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to identify the problems caused by the COVID-19 pandemic on companies operating in different business lines in different districts of Istanbul or people working in different jobs. It is aimed to determine the proposals for solving the problems that are possible in the future due to some conditions that are happening or changing during the pandemic process. As a result of the study, the effects caused by globalization are firstly revealed, the problems experienced are sorted according to the severity and the most accurate economic policies are put forward for the companies in which different professional groups operate. The findings used in our analysis were obtained by conducting surveys with companies operating in five districts in Istanbul. The effects of the problems created by the outbreak in companies operating on different scales have been examined. First, with other studies in the wide-ranging literature on our research with this study, the findings were explained due to different commercial activities and the effects on people in the profession during the COVID-19 pandemic. Then, it was determined whether the problems that started in this process depended on the characteristics such as the inability to supply the products traded due to pandemic restrictions, the changes in demand for the products produced, the jobs that should be completely closed in this process and whether their activities can continue in accordance with digital applications. As a result, even if the activities of these companies continued under pandemic conditions, it was found that they were affected by similar financing-related problems such as cost increases, decreased demand and exchange rate changes, and COVID-19 led to job losses.
