An investigation for education investment amid COVID-19 reported by EY-Parthenon. We thought it’s a good reference, but please use it with your own discretion.
Briefing
- The COVID-19 crisis will have far-reaching impacts across the US and global economy; education is not immune to this.
- Historically, many subsegments of education have been countercyclical, though there may be notable differences in this cycle and with
distancing needs. - The macroeconomy sets the backdrop, but government funding levels and stimulus will also affect education spend in the United States.
- Short-term and long-term impacts are quite variable across education subsegments, but there are likely to be structural changes in spending.
