The impact of the coronavirus on the real economy and equity markets continues to grow and the OECD has estimated a growth rate of only 2.4% for 2020. In this webinar we will discuss this issue with two leading experts on the world economy: Martin Wolf (Associate Editor and Chief Economics Commentator, Financial Times, UK) and Heiner Flassbeck (former State Secretary of the Federal Ministry of Finance, Germany; former Chief of Macroeconomics and Development, United Nations Conference on Trade and Development). We will listen to their views on the measures taken by the United Kingdom, the European Commission and the ECB, including the suspension of the Stability Pact and the launch of the Pandemic Emergency Purchase Programme, to ensure that countries have more budgetary flexibility to support their businesses in one of the most difficult times since the 2008 financial crisis.
