Description
Summary:The COVID-19 pandemic has brought economic activity to a standstill unprecedented in recent history. The aim of this paper is to analyse the potential economic and sectoral impact resulting from suspension of certain activities. The analysis of production linkages and the hypothetical extraction method constitute the methodology applied, taking as a reference trade relation of Spain with the EU, USA and China in 2015. The results obtained based on the four possible scenarios proposed show a decline in GDP due to the paralysis of a set of sectors, revealing the existence of strong production linkages through Global Value Chains.
