Abstract

La economía mundial está sufriendo el impacto de un choque sin precedentes en más de un siglo, la expansión del COVID-19 que ha causado una disrupción en la actividad económica en la medida en que las autoridades se han visto en la obligación de adoptar medidas de contención para “aplanar” la curva de contagio. Con la alta incertidumbre asociada a la duración de esta pandemia, así como al impacto económico y social de las medidas adoptadas, los tomadores de decisión están enfrentando decisiones difíciles acerca de la naturaleza y grado de las respuestas que permitan mitigar los impactos negativos de esta crisis. Respondiendo a esta difícil coyuntura, este documento provee algunos números preliminares con el fin de informar las decisiones de política en Colombia.
