The Pandemic's Structural Legacy in Finance, Business and Work
First edition 2026 · 66 chapters · English, Italian, Spanish
The emergency ended; the invoices are still arriving. A book about where the money went after Covid-19 — through central banks and commercial banks, corporate balance sheets, offices, supply chains, contracts and laws. Its thesis is simple and uncomfortable: the emergency was financed by deferring and relocating losses, and normality is the period in which the bills arrive. With 24 illustrative models and a statute book of 27 legal measures.
