Nordics Macro, Industry and Cities Outlook: How will the economy heal from Covid-19?

The Nordic economies outperformed most of Europe across the course of 2020 and are set to recover faster than the wider region, supported by resilient industrial activity whilst services lag. The second wave of infections will drag on near-term activity, but we expect growth to accelerate firmly from Q2 as widespread vaccine deployment allows governments to ease restrictions, paving the way for a normalisation in activity across different sectors of the economy and the Nordic cities.

We will be repeating the same webinar to cater for the difference in time zones between APAC, EMEA and the Americas:

  • APAC – Friday 23rd April | 10:00 HKT
  • EMEA – Friday 23rd April | 10:00 BST
  • Americas – Friday 23rd April | 16:00 EDT
