This month we see a divergence in how COVID-19 is progressing around the globe. In China and France, the rate of new cases has declined versus its first observed peak; but in the US, the rate has been increasing—and has surpassed its first observed peak. Accordingly, concerns about the risk of catching the coronavirus across most activities in the US have increased since June, even though activity levels have remained relatively stable over that same time period.
Our Snapshot series began in March and includes 12 core weekly articles, 2 special feature articles, as well as key charts delivered on a monthly basis starting in June. The series tracks sentiment and spending changes due to COVID-19. Our next Snapshot will appear on August 24.
BCG’s COVID-19 Consumer Sentiment Snapshot series is based on data drawn from an online survey of consumers that has been conducted regularly since early March 2020 across multiple countries worldwide. Each Snapshot highlights a selection of insights from a comprehensive ongoing study that BCG provides to clients. The survey is produced by the authors, who are members of BCG’s Center for Customer Insight (CCI), in partnership with coding and sampling provider Dynata, the world’s largest first-party data and insights platform. The goal of the research is to provide our clients and businesses around the world with periodic barometer readings of COVID-19-related consumer sentiment and actual and anticipated consumer behavior and spending to inform critical crisis triage activities, as well as rebound planning and decision making. A team composed of BCG consultants and experts from CCI completes the survey analytics.
The situation surrounding COVID-19 is dynamic and rapidly evolving, on a daily basis. This COVID-19 research is not intended to: (i) constitute medical or safety advice, nor be a substitute for the same; nor (ii) be seen as a formal endorsement or recommendation of a particular response. As such you are advised to make your own assessment as to the appropriate course of action to take.
