摘要
Using financial data on firms worldwide, we assess the impact of COVID-19 on corporate performance. We show that firm performance deteriorates during the COVID-19 pandemic. The adverse effects of COVID-19 on firm performance are less pronounced in countries with better healthcare systems, more advanced financial systems, and better institutions. Finally, uncertainty avoidance strengthens the adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic.
