The global economy may be in store for a more severe recession than in 2009, the managing director of the International Monetary Fund, Bulgaria's Kristalina Georgieva, stated. According to forecasts of the IMF, recovery of the world economy is expected in 2021, but only if countries are able to control the spread of the coronavirus and limit economic damage. The main concern is the risk of a wave of bankruptcies and redundancies, which can undermine economic recovery and disrupt the fabric of our societies, Kristalina Georgieva said.
So far, 81 countries have asked the IMF for assistance over the COVID-19 crisis. Georgieva stressed that the organization is ready to provide all of its $ 1 trillion credit resources to countries affected by the virus pandemic.
