Both the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and the World Trade Organization are projecting significant declines for Q2 for global trade.

  •  Global trade continues nosedive, UNCTAD forecasts 20% drop in 2020
  •  The value of international trade in goods has declined by about 5 % in Q1 2020 and is expected to decline further by 27 % in Q2 2020
  •  World Trade Organization expects a decline at about 5%
  •  Trade Contraction from COVID-19 could be deeper than the financial crisis
