ISRAEL - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Israel has a technologically advanced market economy. It depends on imports of crude oil, grains, raw materials, and military equipment. Cut diamonds, high-technology equipment, and agricultural products (fruits and vegetables) are the leading exports. Israel usually posts sizable trade deficits, which are covered by tourism and other service exports, as well as significant foreign investment inflows. The global financial crisis of 2008-09 spurred a brief recession in Israel, but the country entered the crisis with solid fundamentals - following years of prudent fiscal policy and a resilient banking sector. The economy has recovered better than most advanced, comparably sized economies. In 2010, Israel formally acceded to the OECD. Natural gasfields discovered off Israel's coast during the past two years have brightened Israel's energy security outlook. The Leviathan field was one of the world's largest offshore natural gas finds this past decade. In mid-2011, public protests arose around income inequality and rising housing and commodity prices. The government formed committees to address some of the grievances but has maintained that it will not engage in deficit spending to satisfy populist demands.

CHARACTER AND REPUTATION

 

Nothing unfavorable learned.

 

Subject's General Manager, Mr. Errol Derman, the only authorized person to disclose data on subject, is presently abroad and due back in two weeks time. We shall contact him upon his return and update you accordingly.

 

Subject is a veteran business.

 

It should be noted, that a clients of subject (as we were informed in previous years) are OFFICE DEPOT and ACE DIY chains. Both have been leading office supplies chain and DIY chain, respectively, and both encountered grave financially difficulties during the last year. OFFICE DEPOT entered "freezing procedures" in these days, with reported debts to suppliers (sum not mentioned). ACE MARKETING CHAINS also went into freezing procedures in early 2012 (though in March 2012 ACE chain, with most of its branches, was sold to ELECTRA Group, a leading and financially solid group, which continues to operate the "ACE DIY" chain). Hence, we estimate subject may have been hurt to some extent, though we are unable to access the damage.

 

According to the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), import of raw materials for the Paper industries in 2010 increase by 27.5% from 2009, after in that year it witnessed 27% decrease from 2008 due to the slow down trend in local economy. The upwards trend continued into 2011, albeit in a much slower pace, rising by 5.5% from 2010 and summing up to US$ 877 million. In parallel, the prices of imported inputs to the Paper branch have been in a decrease trend (as of 2011 3rdQ) since 2010 3rdQ, after a sharp prices rise since 2009 3rdQ, as part of the global economy recovery.

 

There are some 8,000 employed in the local paper and cardboard industry, in 70 large plants, as of 2010.

 

The local industry investments in imported machinery and equipment in 2011 comparing to 2010 were as follows (by industry segment):

The Paper and allied products industries – marked 29% increase and summed up to NIS 229.8 million (after 60.5% decrease in 2010 from 2009).

Printing and Publishing industries – noted 15% increase and summed up to NIS 265.6 million (after 15.6% increase in 2010 from 2009).
