Five Charts on Spain's Economy and Response to COVID-19

November 13, 2020--The pandemic has taken a significant toll on Spain's people and economy, following five years of strong growth and job creation. A second wave of infections that started in mid-July has put a lid on the recovery.
According to the IMF's latest economic health check of the country, it will take several years for the Spanish economy to recover. And the outlook is subject to strong risks.

Here are six charts on Spain’s economic outlook and the country’s response to the crisis.

Despite a sharp rebound in the third quarter, the Spanish economy remains 8.7 percent below its level a year ago-one of the largest contractions in Europe. The magnitude of the drop reflects the large-scale spreading of infections, which required strict lockdown measures. Structural features that make the Spanish economy vulnerable to disruptions also played a role. Contact-intensive service sectors like tourism, which accounts for about 12 percent of Spain's economy, were hit especially hard. Small and medium-sized companies, which typically have fewer financial resources and contribute to over 70 percent of employment, are struggling to stay afloat. The widespread use of temporary employment accounted for most of the job losses.
