According to the report, the economy of China will grow by 1% for the year 2020. The only thing that gives some respite in the report is that India’s economic growth is not forecasted negatively for the year 2020. The US, Germany, UK, France, and Japan all forecasted negative economic growth.
The report also includes views on the revival of the global economy next year. According to the report, the global economy is expected to rebound by next year, but economic growth will be expected to be less than the pre-coronavirus scenario.
