The Asian Railway Market 2009-2014

SCI Verkehr GmbH is an independent consultancy company which specialises in the technology and economics of transport. We have close connections to the rail industry, with consultants in a wide range of specialist fields. We have an extensive network of experts in Germany and abroad, and we specialise in market and strategy aspects for the mobility sector. Our activities focus on companies in the transport and railway industry, logistics, public and private transport companies and transport and economics departments in public administration at federal, regional and community level.

Furthermore, SCI Verkehr is renowned all over the world as a specialist for market data from the railway industry. For more than eight years we have been offering qualitative and quantitative trend analyses based on existing stocks and regional markets for individual segments of the railway industry in the form of Multi Client Studies.

To round off the Multi Client series, SCI Verkehr is presenting a market study on the Asian region, the fastest-growing rail technology market in the foreseeable future. The economic and population growth in this region conflicts with an underdeveloped rail infrastructure. Economic stimulus packages to counter the current economic and financial crisis are even driving forward rail transport development faster than originally planned. This year, China alone is planning to invest more than EUR 60 billion in the new development and upgrading of railway infrastructure.

In concrete terms the MC Study “The Asian Railway Market 2009–2014” includes:

• Overview and analysis of the Asian market for railway technology differentiated according to product segments and countries (China, India, Japan, South Korea and other Asian countries)
• Characterisation of the regions considered and evaluation of essential market drivers for the respective product segments
• Forecast of the market development between 2009–2014
• A list of the current stocks of vehicles and infrastructure systems
• Core information of the main market players and presentation of the market shares of major manufacturers in the individual product segments

This Multi Client Study is based on numerous information sources, which are continuously analysed, validated and recorded in a database system.

The German version of the study is available from May 2009 and the English version from July 2009 at the price of EUR 2,800 + delivery costs and VAT.
