Responding to my colleague Ben May’s recent piece on the key macro themes driving the 2021 economic outlook, this blog looks at the key sectoral themes for the post-covid world. Overall, we believe the pandemic will have a lasting impact on the behaviour of individuals and firms’ business models. Some shifts will leave permanent damage on sectors, whilst others will open up opportunities in 2021.
Predictions of record-breaking growth next year point to huge opportunities after a truly dismal 2020. But while 2021 may well be the best year for the global economy in more than 40 years – we expect global GDP to grow by 5.1% – it won’t seem like boom times, and plenty of challenges remain for both firms and policy-makers. We expect economic developments and the relative winners and losers in 2021 to be dominated by three key themes:

The use of contingent workers has been growing and is likely to remain high, driven in part by the impact of COVID-19.

In 2019, Huawei supported a £3.3 billion contribution to UK GDP. The company also had a sizeable impact on the UK labour market. We estimate the company supported 51,000 jobs in the UK in 2019. Huawei is estimated to have supported £1.1 billion in tax receipts for HM Exchequer in 2019. This would be sufficient to fund the annual salaries of 30,400 teachers in UK schools.

The European music sector has a major impact on the economies of the EU and the UK. In 2018 the recorded music industry supported an €81.9 billion contribution to EU27 and UK GDP, according to a study by Oxford Economics, commissioned by IFPI. This was larger than the GDP of nine of the 28 EU Member States in that year. Of this contribution, €37.5 billion was generated by the music sector itself through its output, wages and tax payments. To give a sense of scale, this was 1.5 times larger than that made by the wine-making and brewing sectors.

Many American workers, both in traditional roles (e.g., W2 employees) and the extended workforce (e.g., non-payroll workers such as freelancers, independent contractors, and contingent workers), have seen vast changes driven by the COVID-19 pandemic. Suddenly, ways of working long familiar to contingent workers—remote, gig, and flexible work—have become commonplace.
Despite slowing US economic momentum, a worsening health situation, and recent election uncertainty, the policy outlook carries upside risks for the economy. As the democrats have been called winners of the election, we find Bidenomics could lift real GDP growth by 1.2ppts to 4.9% in 2021, vs. 3.7% in a status quo policy baseline.
