This instant report focuses on the direct impact of the war on world trade and investment. It identifies five trade and investment channels through which countries will be affected by the war in Ukraine. These encompass disruptions to: (i) commodity markets (especially food and energy), (ii) logistic networks, (iii) supply chains, (iv) foreign direct investment, (v) specific sectors. The report finds that world trade will drop by 1 percent, lowering global GDP by 0.7 percent and GDP of low-income countries by 1 percent. Beyond these direct effects, the war’s long-term implications for global trade and investment will largely depend on how governments respond to the changing geopolitical environment. 2022-04-29T21:19:08Z 2022-04-29T21:19:08Z 2022 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/099750104252216595/IDU0008eed66007300452c0beb208e8903183c39 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/37359 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank Washington, DC Report Publications & Research Ukraine
