This book provides comprehensive empirical evidence on the impact of COVID-19 on Asian economies, examining the mechanisms through which COVID-19 impacted trade from both the supply and demand sides. The chapters provide analyses based on the latest available data at the macroeconomic, sectoral, and firm levels and focus on the evolving dynamics of international trade amidst the pandemic. The effectiveness of policy responses to COVID-19 is also discussed. This evidence-led book will be useful for economics researchers and postgraduate students interested in international trade and industrial economics. Its deep insight into the post-pandemic trade landscape may also interest policymakers keen on evidence-based policymaking.
