Ancanap, the Italian private ship yards are left at the mercy of the crisis

The Ancanap Italian (National Association Private Yards) catches a glimpse some sign of hope and finds a total estate of the private navalmeccanico section regarding the impact of the economic crisis on the field, even if the effect is of chiaroscuro, with yards that have picked the little opportunities offered from the market and others that have had necessarily to reduce the activity. All this - the association emphasizes - in the complete absence of legislations and financial institutions that support the section.

In occasion of the recent assembly anniversary of the association, held in its center of Rome for the approval of preconsuntivo 2012 and pre-emptive budget 2013, Ancanap has found that, also in the knowledge of the persistent crisis of the field world-wise, the associate yards do not renounce to find some positive sign of confidence. "If on one side, in fact, the annual orders of the 30 mercantile ships world-wise have recorded to september a decrease of the 20% approximately regarding the same period of the year precedence - the association explains - from the other side some associate yards have continued to acquire meaningful orders in markets strongly specialized. On the contrary, other introduced associate yards less in markets than niche, instead have had to appeal heavy the redundancy fund, with the consequent occupational reflected business and heaviest arrest warrants".

"Besides the difficult situation of market - specific Ancanap - to such difficulties it has competition much not only the new regime VAT in marine within, introduced - to our warning with serious interpretative error - from law 217/2011 note also, improperly, like "Communitarian Law 2010", but above all the total lack in Italy of that normative politics and financial institution of support of the exports, activated with strong determination in other concurrent Countries. In Norway for example - the association remembers - he is operating the Export Credit Agency "GIEK", effective public instrument of support for the acquisition of store clerks from yards and Norwegian producers. Or in Spain, where recently the king-introduction - on falsariga of the analogous precedence instrument already censured from the communitarian organs - of a new Tax is preannounced Scheme Leasing in favor of the local yards, instrument that unfortunately it has already begun to cause effects distorted to you on the under way negotiations and not still concluded, between national yards and shipping Italians and not".

The assembly of Ancanap therefore has given its full load sent to the president Stefano Silvestroni and to the director Giancarlo Casani in order to develop to the most opportune actions and proposals of sensitization of the competent national political organs for the urgent adoption of provisions, also extraordinary, than - even though in the full respect of the communitarian norm - they turn out effective for a effective support of the field of the shipbuilding of Italy.

In the course of the assembly moreover it is welcomed to new associates, between which the Faldis Yard, that the family Toffolo of Venice, assets from more is under responsibility of than one hundred years and today stretched out to the constructions with propulsion to electric power from sources alternatives.
