In the first quarter of 2020, affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, the financial market became turbulent, and the global economic prosperity declined significantly after March. The global stock market is in great turmoil, the liquidity crisis of the US dollar broke out, assets were sold off, and the prices of risky assets and safe-haven assets plunged one after another. The VIX index rose more than the financial crisis in 2008. In the latest World Economic Outlook Report released by the International Monetary Fund, the world economic growth is facing the most serious blow since the Great Depression in the 1930s: for the first time, the world is facing the simultaneous recession of both developed and emerging economies. The IMF predicts that the global GDP growth will shrink by 3% in 2020, and the global economy will recover to the 5.8% YoY growth level in 2021. The COVID-19 epidemic will cause losses of about US$9 trillion worldwide in the next two years, exceeding the total GDP of Japan and Germany. If the epidemic continues until 2021, global GDP may shrink by 2.2% next year.

2020年第二季度，因各国央行的流动性支持以及部分地区疫情得到有效控制，全球金融市场从新冠疫情的负面冲击中逐渐恢复。全球股市整体回升，但尚未达到 2020年2月疫情全球蔓延之前的水平。

根据清科旗下私募通数据显示，2020年第二季度PE机构共新募集475支可投资于中国大陆的基金，同比下降10.4%，共募得1,744.46亿元，同比下降42.5%，平均募资规模为3.7亿元，同比下降35.4%；投资方面，2020年第二季度PE投资市场随经济复苏温和回暖，市场活跃度及市场规模环比有一定回升，共发生655起投资案例，同比下降23.3%，但环比上升9.7%，其中披露金额的共有553起投资事件，涉及披露金额为1,236.98亿元人民币，同比上升6.5%，环比上升48.5%；资金向优质项目聚拢趋势明显，平均投资额为2.2亿元人民币，同比上升30.6%。退出方面，本季度PE市场共完成353笔退出，同比下降3.3%，环比上升20.5%；IPO退出仍是市场主流，共完成275笔IPO退出，占比77.9%，同比上升74.05%；其中82笔IPO退出事件涉及的企业在科创板挂牌。

2020年第二季度，因各国央行的流动性支持以及部分地区疫情得到有效控制，全球金融市场从新冠疫情的负面冲击中逐渐恢复。全球股市整体回升，但尚未达到 2020年2月疫情全球蔓延之前的水平。美元指数平均值较一季度有所回升，日元欧元稳定，多数新兴经济体货币明显贬值。伴随美联储推出开放式QE并通过大规模回购等工具向市场注入流动性，各类资产价格走势恢复正常模式，6月30日，VIX指数为30.43%，较3月份明显下降。在国际货币基金组织发布的最新一期《世界经济展望报告》中，新冠疫情对经济影响比预期更为严重，预计复苏将比之前更为缓慢：2020年全球GDP增长率预计为–4.9%，比4月的预测低1.9个百分点。IMF预计所有地区（发达经济体、新兴市场和发展中经济体）2020年都将经历负增长，多数经济体的消费增长预测下调。2021年全球增长率预计为5.4%，比4月预测低0.4个百分点，消费明年将逐步加强，投资也将企稳回升但，仍将疲软。

得益于科创板的推出，以及私募股权和创投基金的减持限制适当放宽等政策利好，2020年上半年中企IPO未受到新冠肺炎疫情的影响，依然保持强劲的势头。其中，2020年第二季度，中企境内外上市总数量为87家，同比上升27.9%，环比上升7.4%；总融资额为1349.89亿元人民币，同比上升66.3%，环比上升48.1%。

2019年，全球流动性持续宽松，在美联储的带动下，全球各主要央行纷纷降息，同时，全球经济增速放缓、贸易格局重塑、新兴市场货币表现等因素综合影响下，全球主要股指全部上涨，股票市场市值规模有所增加。但是，就IPO而言，有所放缓，数量较上年减少21%，筹资额较上年增长1%。2019年，香港交易所、纳斯达克、上海证券交易所IPO公司数量及融资额均列全球前三。

2020年全球并购市场交易量在二季度急剧下降，二季度以来，全球并购交易量仅有4850亿美元，比去年同期1万亿美元的规模下跌近50%。受新冠病毒疫情影响，今年上半年全球并购交易规模较去年同期下降50%，创下自2012年欧债危机以来的最低水平，恢复到疫情之前的水平可能需要几年时间。其中4月份的第三周，全球没有宣布一笔金额超过10亿美元的并购交易，这是2004年以来的首次。美国市场二季度的并购交易量同比下跌90%，仅录得750亿美元，创下了次贷危机以来的新低。
