The 2020 territorial impact of COVID-19 in the EU: A RHOMOLO update
The Covid-19 crisis started in the EU at the beginning of 2020. The economic activity rebounded in summer, but there was another setback in late 2020 as the pandemic resurgence prompted a new round of containment measures. In 2020, the Rhomolo model was used to simulate the potential economic impact of Covid-19 across EU regions for the launch of NextGenerationEU (European Commission, 2020). This Policy Insight reports new territorial results based on up-to-date information on the effects of the crisis in the European economies in 2020. The results, in line with the latest country-level Eurostat official statistics, suggest that there is considerable regional heterogeneity in the impact of the Covid-19 crisis with clear implications for the policies to be put in place for recovery.
