The Italian marine cluster contributes to 2.6% of the national Gross Domestic Product one
The field occupies 477 thousand assigned, pairs to 2% about of the force job of the Country
October 25, 2011

The Italian marine cluster gives a contribution to Gross Domestic Product national the pairs to 39,5 billion euros (given 2009), that is 2.6% of the GDP total and 11% of the Gross Domestic Product one of the single field of the transports, and gives occupation to about 2% of the force job of the Country (477,000 people between direct attache's and induced). This synthesis of the economic and occupational value of the marine section is evidenced by the "IV Relationship of the Economy of the Sea", introduced this morning to Rome near the center of the CNEL, that it is realized of the Federation of the Sea with the Censis and that emphasizes as the marine cluster confirms one of the more dynamic fields of the Italian economy.

The contained figures in the relationship confirm moreover the positioning of Italy to the first place in Europe for imports, with by sea 185,4 million tons of goods, and to the third party for exports, with 47 million tons. Italy then maintains to the leadership also in the crocieristico traffic (with 6,7 million passengers) and in the construction of fleeting ships and motor-yacht of luxury.

The document finds as the impact of the marine activities on the Italian economy goes beyond the aspects more closely legacies to their trasportistica dimension and involves directly various productive fields of the economy. In particular, the marine industry of the transports, whose production exceeds 11 billion euros, to out of the marine cluster annually spends about 700 million in food and drinks, 330 million in producing of the refining of the oil, 240 million in furniture and other manufactured products and 100 million in intermediation services financial institution; the harbour logistics acquires for 265 million in the field of the constructions, for 155 million in the real estate activities and 140 million in the computers and the connected services; the shipbuilding one spends 960 million in members for means of transport, 540 million in producing metallic, 410 million in mechanical equipment and electrical workers and 100 million in producing of plastic; the nautical one, 360 million in producing metallic and to 165 million in mechanical equipment and electrical workers; the peach spends for distribution costs, in good part towards restaurants and food industry, more than two billions than euro. Moreover the professional activities are acquired for beyond 1,17 billion euros from the economic branches of the marine cluster and the purchases of goods and services carried out from diportisti and crocieristi to out of the marine field are estimated in almost six billions of euro.

In terms of contribution to the GDP, after the marine transports the harbour activities of logistics and auxiliaries to the transports are placed (6,7 billion euros of contribution), the peach (4,4 billion), shipbuilding naval (4,3 billion) and the nautical one from diporto (3,3 billion).

The data of the 2009 indicate as the value of the production for the sun market activity is pairs to 34,9 billion euros (included the expenses of the tourists), to which they join 4,5 billion euros of the institutional fields. The precise document that, on the base of the data available today, can be estimated that in the 2010 value of the marine cluster it has been placed between the 38 and 39,7 billion euros. The data on hand indicate a scene for 2011 of contained increase, in order then to resume to develop itself newly in 2012.

More precisely, about the perspectives of the marine cluster the relationship explains that, after a heavy contraction of the activities recorded in 2009, already in the 2010 an encouraging has happened resumption of the levels of permangano traffic goods although of the criticalities that will stop the development, as the persistence on the international market of a strong remainder of hold (an excess of offer of services of transport regarding the question) and a value of the hires that wide remains beneath of the levels precedence to the crisis.

In the first semester of the 2010 they are returned to grow the Italian solid bulk traffics (+25.4% in tendential terms) and those of general cargo (+5.5%), while the progressive difficulty still turns out in bending (- 2.3%) the traffic of container concerning the phase of slow down determined from the crisis is addition to compete with the main North African ports, generally in a position to offering to average prices more contents regarding Italy, puts up spaces for the warehouse and the treatment of the goods, bureaucratic procedures and faster servicings to the goods.

The forecasts for the field are of a consisting expansive phase of general the cargo and the liquid bulk, in particular considering the traffics of producing oil by the area of the Persian Gulf towards the Mediterranean, but of a modest development of the traffic that Italy will succeed to pick up because of the increasing competitiveness of the ports of the side South of the Mediterranean. Moreover the hold excess, with a consequent remainder of offer of services of shipping regarding the question, will last at least until 2012 with slowing-down effects of the increase is from the side of the marine transport that of that of the shipbuilding, and shipbuilding own the naval one will be subordinate at least in the next year to a lowland given increase the situation of structural crisis for the moment recorded from this section in Italy, although the competitive ability to the field remainders high (species in the segment of the cruise ships). At last a slow resumption of the field of the nautical one from diporto is previewed, than to half of 2011 it shows some positive signs, graces above all to the rise of the exports, while continuous the home market to discount the infrastructural deficiencies and a fiscal policy to modernize.

With respect to the markets that will be able to mainly stimulate the increase of the section, taking into consideration the projections of increase of the GDP of the markets elaborated from the International Monetary Fund and of the levels of correlation with the traffic, for period 2011 - the 2015 relationship previews that the area towards which Italy will intensify mainly own marine interchanges could be China and Hong Kong; from current eight million tons of exchanges (were more than 12 million in 2008) could be arrived in 2015 almost 20 million tons. In this way such area could represent 6% of the Italian marine traffics by sea doubling own weight in the matrix Italian origin-destination of the flows. The esteem holds account of elevated the rates of growth of the GDP that, as it is famous, in the past decade, have marked the Chinese economy and that of Hong Kong (between 2005 and 2009 the GDP to running values is passed by 2.400 billion to 4.900 billion dollars and between 2010 and 2015 an increment of 51% in running terms is previewed).

The second area for rate of growth could be verosimilmente the side South of the Mediterranean and the Middle Eastern area. Draft of a region for which in the next few years an appreciable rate of growth of the economy is previewed, to rhythms such to signal the proclivity to new investments at the opening and towards the international exchanges. Draft of the area towards which they are addressed and from which the greater flows of goods come that they regard Italy. The projections, carried out taking into consideration the forecasts of increase of the GDP, indicate the possibility to pass from the current 120 million tons exchanged to about 200-220 million tons.

The third area towards which the Italian marine industry could improve own strategic positioning considerable would have to be that Balkan, whose economy has grown remarkablly in the last decade, so as the interchanges by sea with Italy (increased in volume of beyond 60% between 2002 and 2009 and of 13% between 2005 and 2009). Ulterior indicators try for these Countries mail on the side oriental of the Adriatic a phase of economic expansion rather supported at least between first years 2000 and 2008, with a phase of slow down in 2009, because of the economic crisis. The carried out esteem taking into consideration the sturdy level of existing correlation between the marine exchanges from and for Italy and the GDP of the Countries pertaining to this area carry to consider that from the current 13,6 million tons exchanged by sea with Italy can be arrived in 2015 to beyond 23 million tons.

At last he is likely consider that the shipping Italian it will intensify own activity also with the area of the Persian Gulf. The data on hand put in evidence as the main routes garrisoned from the Italian armament are those which give the Mediterranean turn just towards the area of the Persian Gulf (as well as that back Asia oriental), whose GDP is estimated in increase of 23% in period 2010-2015. Moreover, it is necessary to emphasize that, if the volumes of traffic from and for Italy with the Persian Gulf have a limited weight on the total of the traffics, in value producing vice versa assume a position of absolute relief be a matter itself mostly of oil and of producing of the Italian manufacture of upper-middle quality. On the base of such foundations it is therefore possible to assume that the flows of marine traffic from and towards this area could pass from the current 3,3 million tons 5-6 million to tons.

“The data of the Censis - the president of the Federation of the Sea has declared, Paolo d' Amico - demonstrate clearly that the Italian marine cluster constitutes a field of excellence of the Country. As all, we quickly have the effects of the crisis begun in 2008, between which collapse of the hires and the decrease of the turnover, but we have demonstrated a strong ability to reaction. An aspect that I hold to emphasize - has added - it is that the marine system has maintained during the last few years own weight, graces to a reform process that has returned its competitive members regarding the competitors foreign countries”.

“After the reform of international mercantile navigation of 1998 - it has remembered of Friend - they are invested beyond 35 billion euros in the construction of new naval units, that they have carried the Italian fleet to double becoming so between the main ones to the world, with positions of absolute relief in the which adulterated fields more as those of the units ro-ro and the cruise ships. Also the reform of the ports of the ‘94, also today needy one of modernization, has been important, having returned possible to Italy to by sea characterize in Europe as first importer and exporter and first goal for the passengers and travellers of the cruise ships”.

“Today, by virtue of new scenes of market - it has concluded of Friend - we ask a renewed sensibility all the institutions, so as to proceed quickly on some of the strategic necessities for the competitiveness of the field: between them I want to emphasize the maintenance of the Italian and European norm on the competitiveness of the marine flag, the connection of our ports of call with the nets of terrestrial transport, the adaptation of the backdrops and the simplification of various administrative and fiscal procedures”.

The general manager of the Censis, Giuseppe Roma, has restated “the pulling ahead ability to the Italian marine cluster in a context from time too much tinning”. “I consider opportune - it has continued - than the marine system completes a quality jump once again, above all improving the ability to own logistic nodes to pick up commercial flows in constante increase, flows that continue to having as important transit area the Mediterranean”.

“From the projections that the Censis has elaborated - Rome has explained - the marine cluster will have to not only look with increasing attention to markets already in strong expansion, as that of Asia oriental, where the marine interchanges from and for Italy grow from the half of years 2000 to whirling rhythms, but also to areas in which the Country, thanks to own armament, can carry out a role of rank player, as the side South of the Mediterranean (where 40% of the exchanges from and for Italy are placed), the balcano-adriatic area and that of the Gulf”.

“They will represent fly for the competitiveness of the Italian marine cluster - it has observed the general manager of the Censis - more innovation and sure it put up investments in the advanced member of the marine cluster, in particular in the technologies INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY and those for the automation and safety of the logistic operations, beyond to investments in research & development of prototypes in the segment of the shipbuilding one”.
