Note: Regions in bold aggregated results computed postsimulations, weighted by the relevant country‐level variable. Details for rich countries are omitted. Real consumption is limited to household private consumption and defined as the equivalent variation (welfare).

Note: Regions in bold aggregated results computed postsimulations, weighted by the relevant country‐level variable. Real household consumption is measured as the “equivalent variation” of welfare. Real GDP is computed following national accounting principles. Fisher price indices between base prices and simulation prices are used. Exports of goods and services are measured FOB at constant international dollars but final export prices.
