- Nomisma Mare highlights the consistency and strategic nature
of the economy of the sea
-
- To the value of the maritime cluster is added that of the sector
tourist
-
A quarter of the Italian economy, directly or indirectly,
originates from the sea. This is highlighted by an instant report developed
by Nomisma Mare, the new division of Nomisma established as its own
to fill a chronic gap also in economic and political analysis
and social of the country that rarely takes into account the activities
linked to the sea, in which it is noted that, by aggregating and integrating the
different economic, commercial, productive activities,
tourist and energy related to the sea you get to overcome the
25% of the national GDP.-
- The report points out that, in the tourism sector alone, the
sea sector, in the lead among the choices of both foreign tourists and
of the Italian ones, represents over 60% of the tourist flow
global that in Italy weighs for 6% of the national GDP. The
so-called satellite account, the one that takes into account the whole
induced tourism, makes maritime tourism jump over 9%.
On the other hand, on the islands in Italy live over 6.6 million
Italian citizens, who welcome 26 million tourists every year
by sea. The maritime cluster, the one that includes the companies of
shipping, shipping agents, freight forwarders and ports,
instead it exceeds 2% of GDP, but jumps to 9% if the entire
logistics chain that pivots on the ports. And it is precisely from the
logistics that depends on the competitiveness of the economic system
and national production also considering that by sea transit the
63.7% of Italian imports and 50% of exports. The
"motorways of the sea" transport 1.5 billion annually
of vehicles, lightening land transport with a saving of
external costs (primarily pollution) amounting to 297 million a year.
