Master's Thesis from the year 2010 in the subject Economy - Environment economics, grade: A minus, Beaconhouse University, language: English, abstract: The thesis reviews the available literature on measuring the direct and indirect impacts of natural disasters, both in the short run and in the long run. Based on this review, an attempt is made to quantify the economic impact of the recent floods in Pakistan. This will include not only the estimates emerging from the Damage Needs Assessment by the World Bank and ADB but also derivation of the second round multiplier effects on the GDP by use of the IPP Macroeconomic Model. In addition, an assessment will be made of the prospects for revival of growth.
