Highlights

The global economic downturn directly affected the express and parcels markets around the world. Towards the end of 2008 express markets around the world started to suffer badly from the economic downturn in all segments as global trade and consumer spending started to diminish and parcel volumes started to decline for the first time in many years.

Originally in the second half of 2008 only Western Europe and North America's express markets were affected but by the end of the year the economic crisis had also affected emerging markets previously thought to be relatively immune from the effects of the credit crunch.

Provided an economic recovery begins in 2010, the global express market is expected to regain momentum lagging GDP by several months as the effects on the supply chains start to feed through to the final delivery segment.
