The pandemic has caused the world’s economies to diverge But its long-term impact will be even more far-reaching

The pandemic adds momentum to the deglobalization trend The COVID-19 pandemic is driving the world economy to retreat from global economic integration. Policymakers and business leaders are now questioning whether global supply chains have been stretched too far.
