For more than a year, the Caribbean economics team at the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) has focused on the potential implications of the COVID-19 pandemic for lives and livelihoods across the region. In this podcast episode, the Caribbean economics team discuss their latest Caribbean Quarterly Bulletin, highlighting two main themes: first, forecasts of key macroeconomic indicators, informed by recent expectations for the speed and breadth of tourism recovery across the region; and second, how financial sector risks have evolved since the onset of the pandemic, including a focus on policies undertaken across the region to dampen the impact of this historic shock on banks, corporates, and households.To learn more about the topics discussed please visit this blog https://blogs.iadb.org/caribbean-dev-trends/en/the-fragile-path-to-recovery-in-the-caribbean/ and publication https://publications.iadb.org/en/caribbean-quarterly-bulletin-volume-10-issue-2-august-2021.
