The Global Effects of Covid-19-Induced Uncertainty

Giovanni Caggiano, Efrem Castelnuovo and Richard Kima

No 8280, CESifo Working Paper Series from CESifo

Abstract: We estimate a three-variate VAR using proxies of global financial uncertainty, the global financial cycle, and world industrial production to simulate the effects of the jump in financial uncertainty observed in correspondence of the Covid-19 outbreak. We predict the cumulative loss in world output one year after the uncertainty shock due to Covid-19 to be about 14%.
