The
Pandemic Stalls Growth In The Global Middle Class, Pushes Poverty Up Sharply The COVID-19
pandemic is
having a deep effect on the global economy. In January 2020, as reports of
the novel coronavirus were emerging, the World Bank forecasted that the
global economy would expand by 2.5% that year. In January 2021, with the
pandemic still holding much of the world in its grip, the World
Bank estimated that the global economy contracted by 4.3% in 2020, a
turnabout of 6.8 percentage points. The economic downturn
is likely to have diminished living standards around the world, pushing
millions out of the global middle class and swelling the ranks of the poor.
At the same time, the path to a recovery is clouded
with uncertainties. A new Pew Research
Center analysis finds that the global middle class encompassed 54 million
fewer people in 2020 than the number projected prior to the onset of the
pandemic. Meanwhile, the number of poor is estimated to have been 131 million
higher because of the recession. The drop-off in the
global middle class was centered in South Asia and in East Asia and the
Pacific, and it stalled the expansion seen in the years preceding the
pandemic. South Asia, specifically India, along with Sub-Saharan Africa,
accounted for most of the increase in poverty, reversing years of progress on
this front. As defined in this
report (and in previous
Pew Research Center analyses), people who are middle income live on $10.01-$20 a day,
which translates to an annual income of about $14,600 to $29,200 for a family
of four. This is modest by the standards of advanced economies. In fact, it
straddles the official
poverty line in
the United States – about $23,000 for a family of four in 2020 (expressed in
2011 prices). By global standards, the poor live on $2 or less a day, or no
more than $2,920 annually for a family of four. The number of people
in the global high-income tier (more than $50 daily) is estimated to have
decreased by 62 million in 2020, erasing about half of the gain since 2011,
with most of the change emanating from advanced economies. Meanwhile, the
upper-middle income population ($20.01-$50 daily) fell by 36 million, while
the low-income population ($2.01-$10 daily) is estimated to have increased by
21 million. Who
is middle class (or middle income)? This report uses the
terms “middle income” and “middle class” interchangeably, a common practice
among economists who tend to define the middle class in terms of income or
consumption. But being middle class can connote more than income, be it a
college education, white-collar work, economic security, owning a home, or
having certain social and political values. Class could also simply be a
matter of self-identification. The interplay among these many factors is
examined in studies by Hout
(2007) and Savage
et al. (2013), among others. The population in each
global region is divided into five groups: poor, low income, middle income,
upper-middle income and high income. The poor live on $2 or less daily, low
income on $2.01-$10, middle income on $10.01-$20, upper-middle income on $20.01-$50
and high income on more than $50. All dollar figures are expressed in 2011
prices and purchasing
power parity dollars, currency exchange rates adjusted for differences in the
prices of goods and services across countries. The assignment to a
group, or income tier, is based on a household’s daily per capita income or
consumption, a simple way of controlling
for differences in household size. In the source data, some countries only report income
data while others only report consumption data. The terms “income” and
“consumption” are used interchangeably for the sake of convenience. A middle-income, or
middle-class, threshold of $10 follows the practice of other researchers. A
similar threshold has been used by the World Bank (2007, 2015), researchers at the
Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (Kharas,
2010),
the development community (Birdsall,
Lustig and Meyer, 2013) and others. There is evidence that the $10 threshold,
which is about five times higher than the World
Bank’s global poverty line, is associated
with economic security and “insulates” people from falling back into
poverty. An earlier
Pew Research Center report discusses the choice of income thresholds in greater
detail. The global
middle-class standard is modest by the standards of advanced economies. In
2020, the official
poverty line for
a family of four in the U.S. stood at about $15.90 per person per day (in
2011 prices). Thus, many who are poor by the U.S. definition would meet the
global middle-income standard or, conversely, many who are in the global
middle class would be poor by U.S. standards. These estimates are
based on the Center’s analysis of World
Bank data on
the distribution of people by either income or consumption levels in seven
major global regions. The latest available estimates of income for each
region, such as for 2018 for Europe and Central Asia and 2015 for the Middle
East and North Africa, are extrapolated to 2020 using two sets of growth
estimates: the forecasts issued by the World Bank in January 2020, prior to
the pandemic, and the estimates issued in January 2021, with the pandemic’s
economic impact in plainer sight. The difference between these two measures
is taken to represent the impact of the COVID-19 downturn on the standard of
living of people globally. Prior to the emergence
of COVID-19, some 1.38 billion people were expected to be counted in the
global middle class in 2020. But the pandemic is estimated to have driven
this number down to 1.32 billion. The share of people in the middle class
globally is estimated to have been 17.1% in 2020, instead of potentially
17.8%. The erosion in the middle class might have been deeper if not for the
fact that China – which is home to more than one-third of the global middle
class – evaded
an economic contraction, even though growth there was slower than anticipated. The number of global
poor is estimated to have risen to 803 million in 2020, much greater than the
672 million initially expected. The global poverty rate, which had been
in steady
decline this century, is likely to have increased to 10.4%, nearly reverting to
the rate in 2017, instead of sinking to a new low of 8.7%, as previously
expected. The steep rise in
global poverty is driven by the fact that many who were in the low-income
tier prior to the pandemic lived on the margin of poverty. In 2017, 877
million people lived on $2 to $3 a day, according to World Bank estimates.
Thus, large numbers were susceptible to falling back into poverty prior to
the pandemic, especially in South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa. At the other end of
the economic spectrum, the global high-income population likely fell to 531
million in 2020 from the 593 million originally expected. Consequently, the
expected share in the high-income tier is 6.8%, not 7.6%. A vast majority of
the global high-income population lives in advanced economies, and this group
of countries also experienced a sharp downturn in 2020. Ironically, this
bolstered the global middle-income population as people in advanced economies
slipped down the ladder from higher income tiers. The reversal in global
living standards in 2020 comes on the heels of notable progress earlier in
the decade. From 2011 to 2019, the global middle-class population increased
from 899 million to 1.34 billion, or by 54 million people annually, on
average. The pandemic is estimated to have erased a year of growth, leaving
the global middle-class population nearly unchanged from 2019 to 2020. Global poverty had
abated at an average rate of 49 million annually from 2011 to 2019, with the
number of global poor falling from 1.10 billion to 691 million during this
period. The pandemic, by adding 131 million to the ranks of the poor, has set
the progress on poverty back by several years, and the poverty rate is
estimated to have increased from 9.0% in 2019 to 10.4% in 2020. From 2011 to 2019, the
global high-income population had increased from 459 million to 576 million,
growing by an average of 15 million annually. Thus, the setback of 62 million
due to the pandemic in 2020 also reverses several years of growth in the
high-income population. The share of the global population in the high-income
tier is expected to have decreased from 7.5% in 2019 to 6.8% in 2020. The
erosion of the middle class is centered in Asia, the rise in poverty in Asia
and Africa The effect of the
COVID-19 downturn on the middle class and other income tiers shows distinct
regional differences. Asia is expected to have accounted for most of the
shrinking of the global middle class in 2020, with the middle-class
population falling by 32 million in South Asia and by 19 million in East Asia
and the Pacific. Meanwhile, the middle class in advanced economies is
estimated to have increased by 16 million, in part due to the drop-off in the
high-income tier in those countries. The projected rise in
global poverty in the pandemic is concentrated in South Asia (an increase of
78 million) and Sub-Saharan Africa (40 million), historically among the
poorest regions in the world. The high-income population in advanced
economies is estimated to have shrunk by 47 million in 2020, accounting for
most of the falloff globally. It should be noted that the global cutoff for
the high-income tier – more than $50 a day – is not much higher than the
median income across advanced economies, as an estimated 40% of the
population in these countries is in the global high-income tier. Thus, the
contraction of the high-income tier in advanced economies is more a
reflection of the reduction in the standard of living of the typical person
in these countries than outcomes for the wealthy. The contribution of a
region to global changes overall and the shift in its own income distribution
depends mostly on two factors: the sizes of income tiers in the region prior
to the COVID-19 recession and the impact of the downturn on economic growth
in the region. Prior to the pandemic,
nearly half of the global middle-class population – 672 million of 1.38
billion – was estimated to live in East Asia and the Pacific, a region that
includes China. Latin America and the Caribbean accounted for 191 million,
and Europe and Central Asia was home to 183 million. South Asia accounted for
123 million more. In view of these
magnitudes, the estimated loss (relative to pre-pandemic expectations) of 32
million people from the middle class in South Asia is notable for two
reasons. First, the region contributed the most to the shrinking of the
global middle class in 2020 despite having a middle-income population smaller
than several other regions. Second, the percentage decrease in South Asia’s
middle-income population from what was previously expected (26%) is much
greater than in any other region. Although East Asia and the Pacific shed 19
million from the middle-income tier, that represented only 3% of its middle class. Poverty is most
prevalent in Sub-Saharan Africa. Some 494 million people in Sub-Saharan
Africa, out of a total population of 1.14 billion, were expected to be living
in poverty ahead of the pandemic in 2020. South Asia, with a total population
of 1.86 billion, was expected to be home to 104 million poor. Nonetheless,
South Asia is estimated to have added nearly double the amount of people to
the ranks of the globally poor as Sub-Saharan Africa in the pandemic. The
percentage increase in poverty in South Asia (75%) dwarfs the increase in
Sub-Saharan Africa (8%). The number of poor in
other regions was smaller, estimated to range from 6 million in Europe and
Central Asia to 27 million in Latin America and the Caribbean ahead of the
pandemic in 2020. But, since that moment, the increase in poverty in these
regions is notable. The Middle East and North Africa and East Asia and the
Pacific are each estimated to have seen increases in poverty of more than 20%
due to the recession. The rise in poverty in both Europe and Central Asia and
Latin America and the Caribbean is not far behind, with each experiencing a
17% increase in poverty. A large majority of
the global high-income population – 489 million of 593 million – lived in
advanced economies before the global recession took hold. The estimated
decrease of 47 million, or 10%, in this population in advanced economies
accounts for most of the shrinking of the global high-income tier. In proportional terms,
the drop off in the high-income tier is also notable in Latin America and the
Caribbean (15%), Europe and Central Asia (12%) and East Asia and the Pacific
(12%). The losses in the Middle East and North Africa, South Asia and
Sub-Saharan Africa are relatively small in magnitude (each less than 1
million people) but also represent double-digit shares of the high-income
populations in those regions. The relatively
outsized role of South Asia in the contraction of the global middle class and
the expansion of poverty is the result of it seeing the sharpest reduction in
economic growth in the pandemic. In January 2020, the World Bank forecasted
that South Asia would experience a 4.3% increase in gross domestic product
(GDP) per capita in 2020. But, in January 2021, output in South Asia was
estimated to have decreased by
7.8% in 2020, a retreat of 12.1 percentage points from potential. The setback to
economic growth in other regions is smaller, ranging from 4.7 percentage
points in East Asia and the Pacific to 8.6 points in Latin America and the
Caribbean. East Asia and the Pacific is the only region in which growth is
estimated to have stayed positive in 2020, with GDP per capita inching up by
0.4% even after the onset of the pandemic. Otherwise, the latest estimates of
the change in output per capita in 2020 ranged from -3.2% in Europe and
Central Asia to -7.8% in Latin America and the Caribbean. (PEW) MARCH 18, 2021 |
