CHARACTER AND
REPUTATION
We found nothing detrimental on
subject and its owner.
According to a report from
November 2006, the diamonds branch is on the verge of a significant
recuperation after the deep crisis it got into, the worst one for decades, which
affected the profitability of Israeli diamond businesses. World sales towards
Thanksgiving Day grew by 10% comparing to 2005. That already led to a rise in
rough diamonds.
According to the Ministry of
Industry and Trade, the local diamonds branch managed to stabilize the total
volume of export of cut diamonds during 2006, a year that witnessed many local
and global challenges, and end in the same level as 2005. In rough diamonds a
decrease was noted, due to marketing motives, and as high prices made the trade
in rough diamonds less attractive.
Total (net) export of cut
diamonds from Israel in 2006 reached US$ 6.610 billion, a mere decrease of 1.5%
from 2005 (US$ 6.709 billion). Exports (net) of rough diamonds were US$ 2.701
billion, a 23.2% decrease from 2005 (US$ 3.517 billion, which was a 20.6%
increase from 2004).
Import of rough diamonds (net)
also fell in 2006 by 11.4% (from 2005) to US$ 4.709 billion, while import of
cut diamonds (net) increased in 2006 by 3.3% reaching US$ 4.025 billion.
SUMMARY
Good for trade engagements.
