OECD Economic Outlook, Volume 2021 Issue 2
The global recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is uneven and becoming imbalanced. The OECD Economic Outlook, Volume 2021 Issue 2, highlights the continued benefits of vaccinations and strong policy support for the global economy, but also points to the risks and policy challenges arising from supply constraints and rising inflation pressures.
This issue includes a general assessment of the macroeconomic situation, and a chapter summarising developments and providing projections for each individual country. Coverage is provided for all OECD members as well as for selected partner economies.

Denmark
The Danish economy is recovering strongly from the COVID-19 crisis, with growth of 4.7% this year, projected to ease to 2.4% in 2022 and 1.7% in 2023. A rapid rebound in private consumption as the economy reopened from March saw GDP and employment exceed their pre-crisis levels in the second quarter of 2021. Further virus outbreaks are the major risk, but there are also upside risks to growth and inflation if households choose to spend excess savings accumulated during the crisis and labour shortages become more persistent.
