The 2013 Import and Export Market for Diesel or Semi-Diesel Compression-Ignition Engines for Marine Propulsion in Croatia

On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on diesel or semi-diesel compression-ignition engines for marine propulsion in Croatia face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying diesel or semi-diesel compression-ignition engines for marine propulsion to Croatia? How important is Croatia compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of diesel or semi-diesel compression-ignition engines for marine propulsion vary from one country of origin to another in Croatia? On the supply side, Croatia also exports diesel or semi-diesel compression-ignition engines for marine propulsion. Which countries receive the most exports from Croatia? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers? This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for diesel or semi-diesel compression-ignition engines for marine propulsion in Croatia. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for diesel or semi-diesel compression-ignition engines for marine propulsion for those countries serving Croatia via exports, or supplying from Croatia via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models. In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Croatia fits into the world market for imported and exported diesel or semi-diesel compression-ignition engines for marine propulsion. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for Croatia in particular, is estimated using a model which
