While its sea freight operations suffered due to currency fluctuations, its focus on higher margin operations ensured solid profit growth, and bodes well for the rest of 2007.

Although the recent credit crunch and resulting economic uncertainty are affecting the growth potential of the European express industry, the main effects will be on the use of different modes of transport and profitability rather than on overall levels of parcel volumes. Indeed, supply chain rationalization, internationalization and B2C e-commerce are continuing to drive industry growth.

Shippers are also moving toward economy products as their budgets get squeezed, prompting a shift from air to road and encouraging express players to implement creative solutions for surviving the current market climate.

Trade ministers have agreed that the Doha round of trade negotiations is the best step global leaders can take to avoid a protectionist backlash to the current economic crisis. Although the market is expected to contract in 2009 and 2010 regardless of any political intervention, resolving the Doha round will at least help towards reducing the impact of the downturn.

The alarming increases in fuel costs during 2007 and the first half of 2008 prompted shippers to look for alternative, more cost effective transport modes which, in particular, led to a shift away from the use of airfreight. The economic environment since mid 2008 has motivated shippers to continue with this cost-cutting agenda, ultimately to the benefit of maritime transport.

The decline in worldwide industrial output through 2008 and Q1 2009, caused by the economic crisis, has had a negative effect on M&A activity in the express and logistics industry. The sector saw a lower number of deals and a smaller average deal value in Q1 2009 compared with Q1 and Q4 2008, but deal activity is likely to pick up in the rest of the year, driven by cash-rich companies.

Declines in the Baltic Dry Index and international air cargo volumes, along with forecasts of weak crude oil demand until 2012, have raised questions over various claims of a quicker-than-expected global economic recovery.
