Mediterranean New Economies

Mediterranean Anual Economic Report

A New Mediterranean Regionalization presents vast opportunities, particularly as trade barriers are potentially lowered and quicker, more cost-effective transportation methods are unlocked. End-to-end logistics goods and services should be tailored to foster environments conducive to business growth within regional trading blocs, underscored by a comprehensive understanding of the regions in which they operate.

The evolving economic and commercial landscape is driving the trend towards shorter logistics chains, increasingly favoring regional configurations. In this context, the Mediterranean region emerges as a promising North-South complementary production hub.

Digital transformation offers a unique chance to address social and economic challenges in Mediterranean economies, with many countries rapidly embracing this path. This surge in the digital economy is reshaping regional and global landscapes, improving productivity, inclusion, governance, and transparency.
