Upcoming webinar: The EIU’s Global Economic and Oil Market Outlook

Date: Tuesday, 25 August 2020

Time: 10:00am ET / 3:00pm UK

Second-quarter GDP data made for dramatic reading, with many major economies posting double-digit contractions. There are hopes that activity will pick up now that stringent lockdowns have been lifted in most places. However, most countries will take years to recover to pre-coronavirus GDP levels. 

Join Agathe Demarais and Cailin Birch as they discuss:

• The EIU’s forecasts for the second half of 2020 and beyond

• Key risks to the economic recovery

• The long-term effects of the pandemic on sovereign debt and fiscal policy

• On the comeback trail: the global oil market
