Air Freight Volumes Indicate Slowing Growth in the Second Quarter 2015 [1]
The latest update of global freight data collected by the International Transport Forum at the OECD through June 2015 shows that:
- International trade related air freight volumes in tonnes of goods moved, considered as a lead indicator, fell during the second quarter in the United States while remaining below pre-crisis peak in the EU area.
- Exports to BRICS and Asia remain locomotives of growth.
- Surface freight volumes, measured in tonne-kilometres of goods transported, show signs of a slowing down in China and Russia.
