  • The Israeli Economy at a Glance 2009
    Ministry of Industry Trade and Labor THE ISRAELI ECONOMY AT A GLANCE 2009 July 2009 DATA REFERS TO 2008 Minister of Industry, Trade and Labor. Dear Friends, The Israeli economy continued to grow at a relatively fast pace during the year 2008. In comparison with all developed economies Israel's growth was clearly among the fastest. Against the backdrop of the global financial crisis, much of the year witnessed further rises in industrial production as well as in foreign trade. The very nature of Israel's open economy and international trading activities in diversified fields, at once exposed Israel to the global crisis whilst allowing for adjustments and restructuring of the domestic economy. On the one hand the Israeli economy has been shifting from agricultural and traditional industrial manufacturing to more knowledge intensive industries and ICT trading and service provision. On the other hand, much of the traditional industries have been undergoing technological upgrading in a constant bid to remain competitive and innovative in the global market place. Success has largely been based on the one major comparative advantage of the Israeli economy – the availability of a large pool of highly skilled engineers and technicians. The continued policies of nurturing and encouraging young students to enter the science-based fields of engineering and software, coupled with the support granted to companies engaged in research and development have further enriched the stock of human capital. The Ministry of Industry Trade and Labor continues under the Netanyahu government, to encourage investment in the periphery as well as supporting widespread investment in research and development.
