Podcast: Coronavirus and supply chains
Containment measures to prevent or slow the further spread of COVID-19, like travel restrictions and quarantines, are hurting economic activity. Corporates will feel a negative impact on cash flow from supply shortages or from lost revenues as people are unable to go to work to produce goods, or to consume.
