Publication: Washington, DC : Fondo Monetario Internacional, 2020Physical description: 177 p.Series: (World economic and financial surveys)Notes: Sumario: The COVID-19 pandemic is inflicting high and rising human costs worldwide. Protecting lives and allowing health care systems to cope have required isolation, lockdowns, and widespread closures to slow the spread of the virus. The health crisis is therefore having a severe impact on economic activity. As a result of the pandemic, the global economy is projected to contract sharply by 3 percent in 2020, much more than during the 200809 financial crisis. In a baseline scenario, which assumes that the pandemic fades in the second half of 2020 and containment efforts can be gradually unwound, the global economy is projected to grow by 5.8 percent in 2021 as economic activity normalizes, helped by policy support.Materia / lugar / evento: Recuperación económica Finanzas internacionales Perspectivas económicas Datos macroeconómicos Indicadores económicos Crisis económica Estadísticas COVID-19 Pandemias Otros autores: International Monetary Fund
