CHARACTER AND REPUTATION

 

Nothing unfavorable learned.

 

Subject's General Manager refused to disclose financial data.

 

The recovery trend (mainly in local economy, though also in world markets) since 2009 2nd half positively affected the levels of investments in the import of machinery and equipment during 2010. According to the Central Bureau of Statistics, import of machinery and equipment (investment goods, excl. ships & aircrafts) rose by 7.6% in 2010 comparing to 2009, after 26% fall in 2009 from 2008 (when it rose by 10% from 2007).

 

The general improvement in local economy in 2010 has been felt in the building sector. After falling 6.1% in 2009 from 2008, total investment in fixed assets (excl. ships and airplanes) in the local market rose by 18% in 2010. Investment in construction for dwelling rose by 4.1% in 2009 and by 13.8% in 2010, in annual calculation. These positive signs appear after over the last several years gross domestic investment in building and other construction works was stagnant (after rising trends in 2006 and 2007).

Consumption expenditure of households in 2010 on Housing and on Housing Equipment grew by 2.5% and by 7.5%, respectively, in annual calculation.

 

SUMMARY

 

Notwithstanding the refusal to disclose financial data, considered good for trade engagements.

Good for maximum unsecured credit of US$ 40,000.
