The Sound of Gita Gopinath

IMF Chief Economist Gita Gopinath joins Bruegel Director Guntram
Wolff for this Live recorded session. They were able to discuss
the uneven recovery from the pandemic. In the latest World
Economic Outlook, the IMF warns that even though the global
economy is on firmer ground, recoveries are diverging dangerously
across and within countries, as economies with slower vaccine
rollout, more limited policy support, and more reliance on
tourism do less well.



Global prospects remain highly uncertain one year into the
pandemic. The outlook depends not just on the outcome of the
battle between the virus and vaccines—it also hinges on how
effectively economic policies deployed under high uncertainty can
limit lasting damage from this unprecedented crisis.



Bruegel would like to thank the International Monetary Fund for
co-hosting this recording.
