COVID-19 in 2020: Unlocking Barriers and Locking-In New Goals

Every day is a new development when it comes to COVID-19. Global positioning keeps changing, as the pandemic peaks, subsides and then creeps in again, like an accordion in action.
The Indian story has been no less unique. Whether it be expanding testing procedures, identifying dynamic hotspots, adding onto a promising recovery rate, or introducing possible treatments, we have come a far stretch from where we stood in the initial lockdown in March.

The Unlock series has come out as a game changer, resuming activity in much-awaited sectors, and blossoming early green shoots of economic revival over the last three months. However, our journey is far from over; rather, the real journey has actually begun.

Our report, COVID19 in 2020: Unlocking Barriers and Locking-In New Goals, is a continuation to our Phase I series released in April 2020. Whilst the corona story was rather new that time, requiring us to step back and reshape new practices, this time it is all about unlocking barriers.

Mazars believes, whilst there are a host of changes setting in the new normal, there are certain key facets that will be addressed firsthand. This can be grouped together into an ERASE framework that targets erasing the “infectiousness” of the pandemic and building upon lessons learnt, for recovery.

Unlocking Barriers and Locking-In New Goals

This thought leadership analyzes the pandemic’s impact on range of Indian sectors, identifying pain points and deciphering opportunities for growth. We hope it presents pertinent insights and welcome your feedback on the same.

The time has now come for us to put these new principles into practice, taking steady steps, penning down greater goals, and unlocking them ahead.
