BERLIN – The German economy shrank by 2.2% in the first quarter compared with the previous three-month period as shutdowns in the country and beyond started to bite, official data showed Friday.

The figures from the Federal Statistical Office offered a first glimpse of the damage caused by the coronavirus crisis to Europe’s biggest economy, which the government is trying to limit with a raft of rescue programs.

In a crisis, a policymaker’s attention is focused on those most obviously represented as vulnerable. After all, we have all seen the plight of migrant workers on our TV sets. But very few cameras can get inside abusive homes. Fewer will dare to talk about the stress, misery and indignity of women’s domestic labour with the newly unemployed or work-from-home husbands. Instances of domestic abuse rise in periods of recession. New research has showed that, during the Great Depression, financial uncertainty caused by the economic crash increased the prevalence of controlling behaviour between domestic partners.

What RBI rate cut means for the borrower, investor, depositor

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Friday cut policy rates and extended the moratorium period till August to give borrowers facing a cash crunch some respite. But the move may not help all borrowers for three reasons: the cut will immediately benefit only those whose loans are linked to the repo rate, new borrowers may find it difficult to get a loan as banks have tightened lending policies and the moratorium will add to the cost of the loan in the long term. Depositors will suffer and so will debt mutual fund investors as long-dated funds may not gain the way they normally do after a rate cut, and short-term funds will see their returns fall.
