Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - In the footsteps of Sisyphus : the global economy in 2019-20

Publication: Paris [etc.] : Euler Hermes, 2019Physical description: 11 p.Series: (Economic research. The View ; July 2019)Notes: Sumario: In Greek mythology, Sisyphus was pun-ished for his pride, sentenced for eternity to roll a boulder up a hill, only to see it roll down again. The analogy with the world economy in 2019 is striking. Be-tween 2015 and 2018, the world econo-my, like Sisyphus, committed a sin of pride by constantly deferring its natural condition of evolving in a low growth- low inflation regime, post the sub-prime crisis. Those four years saw a succession of gigantic stimulus packages and un-conventional monetary policy in Europe (2015), the U.S. and China (2016, 2018). Now, a day of reckoning has come. The anger of the gods has materialized in a U.S.-China dispute embodying a so-called trade feud scenario, which has and will continue to impair the world trade and investment cycle.Materia / lugar / evento: Economía internacional Crisis económica Análisis de riesgos Información financiera Perspectivas económicas Vulnerabilidad Otros autores: Euler Hermes
