Abstract

— The article provides calculations of economic losses in 2020 and total losses for 2020–2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as an econometric assessment of the impact of various indicators on their value in different countries of the world. Three groups of factors have been studied: macroeconomic indicators, macroeconomic policy factors, and factors describing the degree of institutional development of countries. As a result of the study, it was found that in 2020 macroeconomic policy measures did not play a significant role in mitigating the economic consequences of the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, however, fiscal policy measures contributed to the recovery process of national economies and reduced the amount of cumulative losses. Institutional factors had a similar impact.
