The Cuban government has implemented new restrictions on the private sector, particularly targeting wholesale businesses. These measures include capping the number of employees, limiting ownership, and mandating state-run import and sales channels. Despite the growth of private businesses, the government blames the sector for inflation and corruption, aiming to control rather than shut it down.
Digital systems play a role in tracking and regulating these enterprises, but the new policies raise concerns about stifling growth. The private sector is essential to Cuba’s economy, yet state enterprises remain less productive.
