Imagine Corona virus or any epidemic disease affected globally. As a result, all the economy will be affected and people will face hard time. Will not it bring an affect in economic balance? Which will turn into high inflation globally and it will result collapse of the banking system. Will it? In my country, the situation is getting worse for product which we are depended on China. I can see a significant inflation here if Corona Virus issue continued.
Coronavirus will not make the bank collapse. What can make a bank collapse is when the majority of people take all their money together. In addition, people do not save money in a bank virtually but only use bank safe deposit box services.
Isolation and restrictions due to a virus certainly disrupt the supply chain of production and consumption which in turn causes an economic slowdown. This condition will affect the banking industry, only banks with the practice of the interest system will continue to receive profits even though the numbers are declining.
The dependence on imported goods proved not to be a good thing. Learning from the trade war between China and America, Trump is trying to reduce its dependence on imported goods from China and roll back domestic industries that were previously killed by the onslaught of cheap products from China. Trade wars have indeed made the price of Chinese products in America more expensive which in turn has led to a reluctance to buy Chinese products and raised awareness to drive the American manufacturing industry.
