Abstract

The ADB COVID-19 Policy Database displays the measures taken and monetary amounts announced or estimated by the 68 members of the Asian Development Bank, two institutions, and nine other economies (i.e., a total of 79 entries) until May 2020, to fight the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. Measures are classified according to (i) the path a given measure takes to affect the financial system, spending, production, and so forth, i.e., provide liquidity, encourage credit creation by the financial sector, or directly fund households; and (ii) the effects on the financial statements of households, businesses, government, i.e., whether the measures create more debt or more income. This gives a total of nine categories. When the information is available, we report the amounts that governments have announced (intentions) they will allocate to each measure (in many cases, no amount is provided because the measure does not entail spending, e.g., interest rate reductions). These are a mix of actual amounts and estimates, today and in the future (without specifying when). The database will be updated, revised, and expanded as information is released. It is available at https://covid19policy.adb.org/.

亚行COVID-19政策数据库:指南

亚行COVID-19政策数据库显示了截至2020年5月，亚洲开发银行68个成员、两个机构和其他9个经济体(即总共79个条目)为抗击冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行而采取的措施和宣布或估计的金额。措施按以下方式分类:(i)某一特定措施影响金融体系、支出、生产等的途径，即提供流动性、鼓励金融部门创造信贷或直接为家庭提供资金;(ii)对家庭、企业和政府财务报表的影响，即这些措施是否创造了更多的债务或更多的收入。这总共给出了9个类别。当信息可用时，我们报告政府已经宣布的(意图)他们将分配给每项措施的金额(在许多情况下，没有提供金额，因为该措施不需要支出，例如，利率降低)。这些是实际金额和估计的混合，包括今天和未来(没有具体说明何时)。该数据库将随着资料的发布而更新、修订和扩充。可以在https://covid19policy.adb.org/上找到。
