In the past few months, for the first time by 2007, the performances of the logistic industry of the world-wide economies less developed are diminished. It finds the last biennial relationship "Connecting to Compete 2016: Trade Logistics in the Global elaborated Economy" from the World-wide Bank that includes the Logistics Performance Index (LPI), index in which is classified the logistic performances of 160 nations.

Overhead to it classifies of included LPI 2016 in the relationship, that it is diffused today and that, as for editions precedence, is realized by the Bank World with the participation of the Turku School of Economics and the support of the International Association of Freight Forwarders (BREATHES), figure for the third time Germany, continuation from Luxemburg, Sweden, Holland and Singapore (Italy is to 21° the place). The first five nations in the ranking of the LPI of the 2014 were respective Germany, Holland, Belgium, Reign Unito and Singapore (Italy figured to 20° the place), while in the ranking of the 2012 they were Singapore, Hong Kong, Finland, Germany and Holland (with Italy to 24° the place), in that of 2010 Germany, Singapore, Sweden, Holland and Luxemburg (Italy occupied 22° the step) and in the first ranking which drafted in the 2007 they were Singapore, Holland, Germany, Sweden and Austria (with Italy ventiduesima).

"The performances of the logistics are in international trade that in the home market - has emphasized Anabel Gonzalez, senior director Global Trade & Competitiveness Practice of the World Bank Group - they are essential for the economic increase and the competitiveness of the Countries. A efficient logistics connects the people and the enterprises with the markets and the opportunities, and helps to reach levels higher than productivity and of well-being. Unfortunately - it has found Gonzalez - the difference between rich and poor Countries regarding the performances of the logistics is still anticipates and - it has specified - the tendency to a convergence observed between 2007 and the 2014 is invert if of the Countries with them it gets worse performance".

"In order to obtain good performances in the field of the logistics - it has observed Jean-François Arvis of the department Global Trade & Competitiveness Practice and coauthor of the relationship - it is important to improve the reliability of the supply chain that they connect the economies with the markets. In the Countries that anticipate more limitations, the requirements are concentrated on the strengthening of infrastructures or determining improvements in the management of the customs activities. The Countries with good logistic performances must face sundries complex issues centralized on the development and the quality of the services. And all the Countries with the best performances show a grip collaboration between the public sectors and private in the creation of a global approach to a efficient logistics".
