  • The stronger than expected post lockdown recovery of steel using sectors led to upward revisions of steel demand forecast

    Still, a substantial decline of steel demand is expected in 2020 in both developed and developing countries. China again is an exception

    China’s role as crisis buffer is much reduced this time, compared to the global financial crisis. Nevertheless, global steel demand in 2020 will contract much less than in 2009

    Strong government stimuli have provided a buffer to the pandemic shock in developed economies. Emerging economies were more vulnerable to the shock, especially India and Latin America

    Beyond 2020, recovery is expected to be slow and uneven withcontinued social distancing, fall out from unemployment and corporatebankruptcies, and lingering uncertainty. Recovery to be led by emergingAsian countries

    Further downside risk from second waves in various regions

    Structural changes are expected to accompany the recovery process 10

  • The COVID-19 pandemic might bring a far-reaching transformation of the world

    Exact shape of transformation is yet to be identified, but likely to shift demand patterns and operational environment

    New megatrends may offer additional challenges to the steel industry

    Still, steel will be part of the solution and will also see new opportunities
