There is an uncertainty about the consequences of the so-called COVID-19 pandemic (Coronavirus) that started in China, but spread to other countries, and about the impact it may have on the global economy, the deterioration of the global assets and the increase in global financial volatility.
In this regard, various national and supranational authorities are taking measures to mitigate its effects. Among others, on March 12, 2020, the EBA and ECB have announced transitional measures to mitigate the impacts of COVID-19 on the European banking sector.
