  • SIPRI Yearbook 2001: Armaments, Disarmament and International
    Appendix 4D. The 100 largest arms-producing companies, 1999 REINHILDE WEIDACHER, ANNE BRANDT-HANSEN and the SIPRI ARMS INDUSTRY NETWORK* I. The SIPRI ‘top 100’ in 1999 and major events in 2000 After half a decade of rapid concentration in the context of shrinking markets, the Western arms industry has entered a new phase of reorganization in which a smaller number of large companies face a constant if not growing level of demand for new military equipment. A period of intensive mergers and acquisitions (M&A) began in the early 1990s. Among large aerospace companies, concentration culminated in 1997–98 in the USA and in 1999–2000 in Western Europe. The high rate of concentration in 1999 is reflected in the significant increase in the combined value of arms sales of the 100 largest arms-producing companies in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and developing countries (except China)— by more than 11 per cent in nominal terms, from $141 billion in 1998 to $157 billion in 1999 (table 4D.2).1 Mergers and acquisitions accounted for the overwhelming share of this increase. The US Government responded to the high rate of concentration achieved by 1999 with an arms industrial policy which had as one of its major aims to preserve a suffi- cient level of competition in order to improve ‘affordability’ for the Department of Defense (DOD) and promote ‘innovation’ in military technology. In July 2000 the DOD adopted a new competition policy ‘requiring that DOD consider the effects of its acquisitions and technology strategy and budget plans on future competition’.2 To facilitate continued competition the DOD also favours a ‘competitive transatlantic industrial model—with industrial linkages among multiple firms on both sides of the Atlantic and technology sharing subject to security safeguards’.3 M&A in the US arms industry continued in 2000.

  • → Valorisation Économique Et Sociale Du Transport Aérien
    Améliorer la compétitivité du secteur aérien français Cahier technique n°1 Î Valorisation économique et sociale du transport aérien Améliorer la compétitivité du secteur aérien français - Cahier 1 - Date : 21/06/05 Valorisation économique et sociale du transport aérien Quelle définition pour le transport aérien ? Selon la nomenclature d’activités françaises, le transport aérien regroupe les activités régulières (code NAF 62.1Z) et le transport aérien non régulier (code NAF 62.2Z). Le transport aérien régulier regroupe le transport de personnes, de marchandises et de courrier sur des lignes régulières et selon des horaires déterminés. L’ensemble des vols charters, même réguliers, est exclu de cette classe. Le transport aérien non régulier regroupe les transports aériens de personnes et de marchandises réalisés par les charters, les avions-taxis, les locations d’avions avec pilote, ou encore les excursions aériennes. Les autres activités aériennes telles que les baptêmes de l’air, le parachutisme, les promenades en montgolfière, etc. ne sont pas assimilées à du transport aérien mais à des services récréatifs et services liés au sport. Le transport aérien, un outil indispensable de nos sociétés d’échanges Le trafic aérien mondial est en constante augmentation depuis 10 ans, indépendamment des événements géopolitiques récents. En 2001, l’activité « transport de passagers » est estimée à 364 milliards de dollars, en augmentation de 77% par rapport à 1991. La croissance du transport aérien de fret est de 9% par an, soit en moyenne 3 points de plus que celle du trafic passagers. La demande de transport aérien est principalement induite par la croissance économique, qui s’appuie dans un contexte mondialisé sur un besoin important d’échange et de mobilité des biens et des personnes.
