Global Prospects for Coal-Fired Power Generation

Coal is widely considered one of the most affordable sources of energy in the world. World coal reserves are abundant. These also have a wide distribution pattern, with particular concentration in countries including the United States, Russia, China, Australia, and India. The continuous rise in global coal-fired generation in recent years has resulted from various macro factors including global economic growth; price increases of other energies, such as oil and natural gas; and improvements in coal mining processing technologies; and productivity. Coal will continue to hold an increasing share in the energy mix of emerging countries, therefore, growth in coal demand is unlikely to stagnate.

The French Defense Industry Analyses and Forecasts to 2017

During the review period (2008-2012), French defense expenditure registered a CAGR of -0.52%, and is valued at US$55.18 billion in 2012. During the forecast period (2013-2017), the country’s defense expenditure is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 3.3%. However, the French Ministry of Defense has announced that the country is expected to reduce its defense expenditure during 2012–2013, in an effort to reduce the country’s budget deficit. This is expected to lead to a decline in defense expenditure during this period. However, from 2013, defense expenditure is expected to increase at a CAGR of 3.3% to reach US$64.91 billion by 2017 (see graph below for reference).  

France imports 30%, of which 20% is procured from other European countries such as Italy and Austria. The country imports advanced technology equipment such as sensors, engines and artillery and engages in technology transfers. Historically, the US was the largest supplier of arms to France; however the country has recently begun to import from European countries such as Italy, Austria and Germany.

France has no offset obligations for defense imports and follows a restrictive foreign investment policy, which does not allow the foreign acquisition of domestic defense companies without governmental approval. The French foreign direct investment (FDI) policy restricts investment in the defense sector, as prior approval from the French government is required for such an investment. This restrictive foreign investment policy, coupled with a preference for domestically produced defense equipment, ensures that the domestic defense industry is protected from the potential competition of global companies.

France has announced the implementation of defense budget reductions in order to reduce the country’s fiscal deficit. The majority of the defense products manufactured by the domestic defense industry are procured by the government; therefore the proposed reductions will have an adverse impact on the domestic defense industry, which will be forced to venture into foreign defense markets. The foreign defense companies that cater to French defense requirements are challenged by both strict limits on foreign investment policy, and a defense policy that prioritizes domestically manufactured goods.

Hungary Life Insurance Market to 2016

Negative economic growth, a decline in disposable income and a lack of transparency in traditional life insurance led to a decline in the Hungarian life insurance segment during the review period. In 2011, the number of life insurance policies sold declined as compared to 2010, due to the government’s initiative to stop accepting new applications for foreign-currency mortgage repayment schemes, and also the increase in surrender and lapse of unit-linked insurance products. However, over the forecast period, the Hungarian life insurance segment is expected to slowly grow with the help of new product innovations introduced by insurers, an increase in unit-linked policy sales and stable economic growth.

Scope

This report provides a comprehensive analysis of the life insurance market in Hungary:

• It provides historical values for the Hungarian life insurance market for the report’s 2007–2011 review period and forecast figures for the 2012–2016 forecast period

Global and China Dissolving Pulp Industry Report 2011-2012

Dissolving pulp is a pulp that has a high cellulose content (>90%), with downstream demand mainly from viscose fibers.

Global dissolving pulp capacity in 2011 was approximately 5.4 million tons, primarily concentrated in North America, South Africa, Brazil and other regions with rich forest resources. The worldwide leading manufacturers include Sappi, Birla, Sateri, Rayonier, Buckeye and Lenzing mainly concerning production of dissolving wood pulp, altogether accounting for about 60% of the world’s total capacity of dissolving pulp in 2011.

In the context of increased demand and skyrocketing price of dissolving pulp during 2010-2011, global major producers successively planned to raise production capacity, with growth expected to outnumber 2 million tons by 2016. However, considering strict environmental policies abroad as well as the higher density of China’s textile industry, the new capacity layout begins to favor China to a large extent. ?

In 2011, China’s dissolving pulp capacity reached 896,000 tons, of which roughly 70% was newly added. Combined with the present 600,000 tons of capacity planned or under construction, China will achieve a total dissolving pulp capacity of around 1.5 million tons once put into operation, thus becoming one of the significant dissolving pulp origins worldwide.

In China, dissolving pulp manufacturers are mainly large and medium-sized paper-making enterprises and chemical fiber enterprises; as for the former, there are mainly Yueyang Forest & Paper, Sun Paper and Fujian Qingshan Paper Industry, with dissolving pulp capacity ranking China’s top three positions and altogether sharing 66.5% of China’s total capacity in 2011, showing obvious scale advantages.
