Abstract

Die weltwirtschaftliche Aktivität ist infolge der Covid-19-Pandemie im ersten Halbjahr 2020 um annähernd 10 Prozent gesunken. Nach einem Rückgang um 3 Prozent im ersten Quartal brach die Weltproduktion im zweiten Quartal um rund 7 Prozent ein, auch weil weltweit Maßnahmen zur Eindämmung der Pandemie ergriffen wurden. Inzwischen hat aber eine Erholung eingesetzt, die für das dritte Quartal hohe weltwirtschaftliche Zuwachsraten erwarten lässt, wie sie in China bereits im Frühjahr verzeichnet wurden. Anders als dort wird die Produktion ihr Vorkrisenniveau aber in den meisten Ländern noch deutlich verfehlen. Die weitere Normalisierung dürfte sich in erheblich langsamerem Tempo vollziehen, auch weil die Pandemie noch nicht überwunden ist und bedeutende Teile der Wirtschaft noch längere Zeit unter Corona-bedingten Einschränkungen leiden werden. Im laufenden Jahr wird wohl ein Rückgang der Weltproduktion (gemessen auf Basis von Kaufkraftparitäten) von 3,6 Prozent zu verzeichnen sein. Für 2021 rechnen wir zwar mit einem kräftigen Anstieg der Produktion um 6,7 Prozent. Die durch die Corona-Krise verursachten Einkommenseinbußen und eine infolge von verschlechterten Absatzerwartungen und einer reduzierten Eigenkapitalbasis vermutlich nachhaltig gedämpfte Investitionsneigung wird aber dazu führen, dass das Niveau der Weltproduktion auf längere Zeit deutlich unter dem Pfad bleibt, den wir noch zu Jahresbeginn erwartet hatten. Im Vergleich zu unserer Prognose vom Juni haben wir die Prognose für 2020 um 0,2 Prozentpunkte und für 2021 um 0,5 Prozentpunkte nach oben revidiert.
