Covid-19 shock: What lessons can we learn for competition and global markets?

The Covid-19 pandemic has shocked our world. Our healthcare systems are under intense pressure, and the economy is suffering badly too, with stalling trade and investment, and massive job losses adding to human suffering. We talk to Frederic Jenny, Professor of Economics at ESSEC Business School in Paris and chair of the OECD Competition Committee. Why have our economies been so badly affected by the coronavirus crisis? What questions does the crisis raise about globalisation, and about markets? Can competition policy help? How can governments be better prepared in future? Host: Robin Allison Davis For more information, go to: www.oecd.org/coronavirus Get the latest OECD content delivered directly to your inbox!
