The COVID-19 Crisis: Business Opportunities and Risks
Original language description
The COVID-19 crisis is unusual not only in terms of its causes but also its course and effects. The COVID-19 viral disease forced governments to take measures that should save health and lives. The subsequent economic crisis pushed the governments to adopt fiscal measures, which would mitigate its effects on the business sector and unemployment rates. The measures adopted were quite different from country to country and 15 months is too short a time to assess which governments made the “right” decisions. The year 2020 was the worst for economic growth since World War II but it seems that many markets and companies were able to recover from the lockdowns relatively fast. The pandemic led to an increase in online shopping, work from home, accelerated digitalisation, innovation, and robotisation. These changes began to take place already before the pandemic, just like the related problems such as rising market concentration, the share of intangible company assets and problems in the labour markets. The crisis has increased the need to protect market competition and intellectual property and enable labour force mobility between sectors and regions. These problems should not be amplified, inadequate state market interventions and subsidies that save lives and health during the pandemic should not deform markets in the times of economic growth.
