Agility releases new emerging markets index

 
   Agility and Transport Intelligence said ithey will launch the second edition of the Agility Emerging Markets Logistics Index, a measure of how change and instability in the last year have affected more than 40 of the world’s emerging markets.
   The index will address issues like:
  • Which market became China’s biggest trading partner?
  • Did the Arab Spring impact business and confidence across the Middle East?
  • Which markets does the logistics industry think are the top 10 “markets of the future”?
  • How is near-sourcing changing the global picture – and who benefits?
  • Which trade lane does the industry see as the top trade lane of the future?
   The report also includes results from a survey of 550 senior logistics executives. The index, launched in January 2011, ranks and analyzes the world’s top developing logistics markets.
   The index is available at www.agilitylogistics.com/emergingmarkets from Jan. 17.
