3 The Crisis and Beyond Global Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) increase compared to the previous month decrease compared to the previous month Global Crisis 2008/2009 Crisis in Eurozone April Feb no change compared to the previous month June North America and Europe continued to register solid expansions of production in November. Price pressures remained on the downside during 35 November, with both input prices and output charges Dec 2008 falling during the latest survey month Nov Output stagnated in China and Vietnam, and declined in Taiwan, South Korea, Indonesia and Malaysia. A contraction was also signaled in Brazil. Source: J.P. Morgan, Markit Global Manufacturing Index 3

Speciality Polymers Antwerp NV will continue to supply DuPont with EVA and copolymers of acrylates. PVC Vestolit (D) was taken over by Mexichem (MX). The acquisition highlights Mexichem s strategy to become a integrated worldwide provider of PVC products. Vestolit will be managed in Germany. PVC Ineos (CH) and Doeflex Compounding (UK) merged their PVC-compound activities. The cooperative venture operates under the name Ineos Compounds and produces in UK, Switzerland and Sweden. PPS Solvay (BE) acquired Chevron Phillips Chemical s Ryton polyphenylsulphone (PPS) segment. The business will be fully consolidated in Solvay s business unit Specialty Polymers.

53 Competitiveness - Oxford Economics Oxford Economics and the European Chemical Industry Council (cefic) started the project in 2013 October 2014, the final report was released The purpose was to evaluate the competitiveness of the European chemical sector compared to other countries since 1991 Identify the main drivers behind competitiveness and their influence Polymers, as a major sub-sector of the chemical industry, was also analyzed 53

54 Competitiveness - Oxford Economics The European chemical sector is the seconded-largest global chemical sector worldwide ( 527 billion in sales 2013) The majority of the decrease in extra-eu export market share of the EU chemical sector observed over the last 20 years is due to declining competitiveness China, Saudi Arabia and India became equal competitors. Europe s decline of competitiveness is lager than that of the USA in the chemical sector Polymers and Petrochemicals lost more competitiveness than any other chemical industry sector or sub-sector There are political and economic reasons for the decrease in export market share, such as high energy costs, lagging innovations, currency appreciation, high labor costs, regulatory and tax burdens 54

55 Drivers of chemical competitiveness For the whole industry statistically significant relationships between the changes in competitiveness and energy prices, R&D, investment and labor costs were identified. Statistical relationship; + = positive influence; - = negative influence; quantity = statistically significance; / = statistically insignificant Energy price R&D/ Innovation short-term R&D/ Innovation long-term Sector investment Labor cost Chemical industry --- / Basic inorganics / / - Petrochemicals Polymers -- / / Specialty chemicals Consumer chemicals / ++ / + - Pharmaceutical industry / Plastics products Source: Oxford Economics, Haver Analytics, Cefic 55

56 Europe (EU 28) Competiveness of Polymer Industry Europe lost export market share, due to losses of competitiveness Since 2003 the European polymers could profit from a positive structural effect Nevertheless, the global export market share diminish from 17% in the early 2000s to 13% in 2012 Reasons for the ebbing competitiveness are lower feedstock and energy prices in US and Saudi- Arabia Source: Oxford Economics, Haver Analytics, Cefic 56

57 Europe (EU 28) Competiveness of Polymer Production Over all three periods polymers lost export market share due to ebbing competitiveness. Since the crisis, this trend gains momentum Only Petrochemicals lost more export competitiveness Source: Oxford Economics, Haver Analytics, Cefic 57

58 Europe (EU 28) Competiveness of Plastics Products 1991, the European export market share for plastics products was 22%. Until 2012 only 14.8 % were left Growing demand outside of Europe explains the positive structural effect since 2000 As well as polymers, plastics products suffer from lower feedstock and energy prices outside Europe Source: Oxford Economics, Haver Analytics, Cefic 58

59 Europe (EU 28) Competiveness of Plastics Products Similar development as polymers Loses of export competitiveness since the early 90s Positive structural effect since The effect lessened after the crisis started Source: Oxford Economics, Haver Analytics, Cefic 59

60 Drivers of Competiveness Natural gas prices The shale gas boom in the US has opened up a wide gap in natural gas costs relative else where in the world US prices are now just one-third of European levels Japan is in a worse situation, because the reduction of nuclear energy capacity in the wake of the Fukushima disaster has dramatically increased demand for fossil-fuelbased electricity generation. Source: Oxford Economics, Haver Analytics, Cefic 60

61 Drivers of Competiveness R&D spending There has been a secular decline in chemical sector R&D intensity over the past 20 years in the developed world, although patterns in individual countries vary But perhaps the most surprising trend is China, where R&D intensity increases dramatically in the early 2000s as China entered the WTO Source: Oxford Economics, Haver Analytics, Cefic 61

62 Drivers of Competiveness Business regulatory burden, 2013 The EU still has a heavier burden than all other major countries except Brazil. The US regulatory burden has become heavier over the past seven years Source: Oxford Economics, Haver Analytics, Cefic 62
