The Impact of COVID-19 on SME Financing (OECD)

30 December 2020

"The COVID-19 crisis has had a profound impact on SME access to finance. In particular, the sudden drop in revenues created acute liquidity shortages, threatening the survival of many viable businesses. The report documents an increase in demand for bank lending in the first half of 2020, and a steady supply of credit thanks to government interventions. On the other hand, other sources of finance declined, in particular early-stage equity."

Regional Economic Prospects: COVID-19: Early Estimate of the Damage, Uncertain Prospects

16 December 2020

"Output in the EBRD regions contracted by 8.2 per cent year-on-year in the second quarter of 2020 as social distancing measures aimed at containing the spread of Covid-19 weighed on domestic demand and supply. Their effects were compounded by weaker demand for exports, a collapse in tourism, a drop in remittances and low commodity prices. This contraction was steeper than anticipated in May although less deep than in advanced economies where lockdowns tended to be longer. The averages mask significant variation in economic outcomes across the EBRD regions, with tourism-dependent Croatia, Greece and Tunisia recording contractions in excess of 15 per cent year-on-year.

Five keys to expanding Central Asia’s global value chains

09 December 2020

"Central Asia’s long-term economic vitality will depend on the ability of the region’s economies to participate in global value chains and possibly upgrade to higher value-added activities. Value chains have transformed global trade and production by enabling the stages of a product to be dispersed across countries. This is particularly true where the right skills and input requirements are available at competitive cost and quality.

Wish You Were Here - Impact of the Pandemic on Tourism

04 December 2020

A new article in IMF's Finance&Development magazine looks into impacts of the pandemic on the tourism sector.

"Before COVID-19, travel and tourism had become one of the most important sectors in the world economy, accounting for 10 percent of global GDP and more than 320 million jobs worldwide.

In 1950, at the dawn of the jet age, just 25 million people took foreign trips. By 2019, that number had reached 1.5 billion, and the travel and tourism sector had grown to almost too-big-to-fail proportions for many economies.

Preparing for an Unknown World

Preparing for an Unknown World

14 October 2020

"Once COVID-19 abates, we will be reminded of how everything changed, of the world that was. But the unfolding crisis contains profound lessons for the future. When international delegates met at Bretton Woods in July 1944 to devise a postwar world, the war was still far from over. Yet, recalling the missed opportunities that had followed the previous world war, they understood that the focus had to shift from ending the war to establishing new foundations.
