CHARACTER AND REPUTATION

 

Nothing unfavorable learned.

 

Subject is long established and well-known.

 

The Jesselson family has been known in their involvement in the local business community. Jesselson family of the U.S.A. is most affluent, and own, control and invest in many other fields.

 

According to data by of the Metal, Electrical and Infrastructure Industries Association, representing the local Metal and Electricity Industries, which includes large scale export-oriented industries on one hand and family-owned plants which sell to the local market: 2010 sales (local and export) by the said industries amounted to NIS 70 billion, comprising 25% of Israel's industrial output. Results are similar to 2008 scales, after some 20% drop in 2009 due to the significant slow-down in the local economy, affected by the global financial and economic crisis. Sales for export reached US$ 10 billion in 2010.

 

Some 90,000 employees serve the said industries (26% of Israel's industrial workforce).

 

According to the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), import of metals raw materials to the local industries in 2010 and 2011 first 8 months showed an increasing trend, after a contraction in 2009 in view of the local and global slow-down in economy. Import of raw materials divided as follows: Iron and Steel - rise by 33.6% in 2010 (US$ 1,802.7 million, after 38% decrease in 2009 from 2008) and by 38% in 2011 first 8 months, reaching US$ 1,620 million; Precious Metals - up 22.5% (US$ 143.9 million, after 35.3% decrease in 2009) and by 13.5% in 2011 reaching US$ 106 million; Non-ferrous Metals - 40.7% rise (US$ 822.2 million, after 44.3% decrease in 2009 from 2008) and by 34% in 2011 first 8 months reaching US$ 693 million.

 

CBS data reveals that gross domestic investment in machinery and other equipment for the manufacturing industry (both from import and domestic production) for 2010 rose by some 10% from 2009 (when it fell by 19% from 2008). Total gross domestic investment in machinery and other equipment from import alone, rose by 12% (after falling in 2009 by almost 24%).

 

According to CBS, import of chemical raw materials for the local industries decreased in 2009 by 18.5% comparing to 2008, as part of the local and global slow-down trend. An improvement was marked in chemicals import in 2010, as local and global economy recovered from the crisis, with growth of 18% comparing to 2009, with value of imported chemical raw materials reaching US$ 4,231 million. The upwards trend continued into 2011, with some 20% increase in import of chemicals in the first 8 months (US$ 3,298 million), comparing to the parallel period in 2010.
