Supply Chain Disruptions and the Effects on Price Stability

Abstract

The widespread impact of price instability issues in the world has originated in global financial problems for more than three decades, and the effect of wars on the price changes remained mostly local or regional. But today, the impact of price instabilities rooted in supply chain bottlenecks is broader and more persistent in nature. With this changing price instability structure, analyzing the interdependence in production among the countries and exploring their effect on countries' inflation levels has become crucial. With this motivation, the chapter examines these relations by the BVAR model. The interdependence of countries' own purchasing managers' index, representing the supply chain disruptions, and their impulse on the producer price index, representing the inflation, are captured by the BVARs. The chapter focuses on the cases of a group of specific economies and chooses three countries: Germany, the United States, and Turkey. The findings remark that these countries' inflation levels are associated with their major trading partners' supply chain disruptions.

The Impact of the Corona Virus on Supply Chains: Opportunities and Challenges

“…It is obvious, nonetheless, that initiatives have had to cope with substantial economic and operative disturbances, such as coping with the consequences of limited supply, coping with disruptions to logistics services, and even having difficulties achieving their respective scope of work to consumers. Therefore, this article will be comprised of in-depth research on the impacts that COVID-19 has had on supply chains, also looking at the threats and opportunities (Attinasi, et al, 2022).…”

“…The effects on supply chains have been compounded by a decline in international travel and trade due to the outbreak. According to some forecasts, losses in the international supply chain due to the pandemic may reach billions of dollars (Attinasi et al, 2022). Over 6.2 million deaths globally have been attributed to COVID-19 since the outbreak's beginning, according to data collected by the World Health Organization (WHO).…”
