Davos: Post-COVID recovery not baked in
The strength of the global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic depends on who wins the “race between a mutating virus and the vaccines,” Kristalina Georgieva, managing director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), warned.
Speaking by video link to the virtual World Economic Forum in Davos, she said the IMF had forecast global growth to reach 5.5% this year, after contracting by an estimated 3.3% in 2020.
Georgieva noted how the pandemic had widened the gap between advanced and underdeveloped countries and said that global cooperation on how to deal with the crisis last year was “not up to par.”
