。 When the first wave of the pandemic hit
countries atthe beginning of2020, governments
closed all non-essential businesses and issued
stay-at-home orders, The resulting economic
losses Were huge in terms of output, jobs and
incomes. Global trade of goods fell dramati-
cally. Services have been hit particularly hard,
especially activities that rely on social interac-
tion Such as tourism, hotels, restaurants and en-
tertainment,
As summer approached, the number of Covid-
19 infections gradually decreased and most re-
strictions Were lifted,Consumer expectations
improved and activity had a“V shape”rebound,

expected recovery. However,only China re-
gained its pre-crisis level of GDP. According to
the CPB world trade monitor, global trade grew

level in November. According to recent datathe

The epidemiological Situation started to worsen
again in autumn 2020, forcing governments to
implement a new round of lockdowns, Alt-
hough most of these shutdowns are less strin-
gent than those enforced in Spring (Chart ]),these containment measures Will reverse the

likely to negatively affect growth prospects for
2021.
Monetary and fiscal policy remain crucial to

flation to temporarily exceed 2 per cent in the
coming years and could further delay the next

the health crisis.
China is leading the global recovery. The Chi-
nese economy recovered well from the first
wave ofthe pandemic. The continued growth of
industrial production and an economic structure
which is more manufacturing orientated con-
tributed to this result (Chart 2). Moreover, 让
