To ensure
AMI provides “global coverage” for maritime force
developments, to include new construction,
modernizations, as well as future shipbuilding trends,
the attached spreadsheet was designed to focus and
validate WNPR reporting based on the following
criteria:
-
Identify the top 208 global economies based on Gross
Domestic Income (GDI), (formerly gross domestic
product).
- Of
the 208 global economies, identify the ocean based
countries with a maritime force which includes a
navy, coast guard, or maritime border guard.
-
Categorize these countries with a maritime force
that possess the GDI and exports revenues available
to build and maintain a maritime force.
-
And, identify those countries who have committed to
organizations which require a naval force for mutual
defense.
Using
these criteria, AMI is able to determine the most
important countries to focus efforts on for the economic
benefit of our clients. Of the 158 nations that possess
a maritime force, 72 of these countries are reported in
WNPR totaling 552 naval projects worldwide. We hope
this background and the spreadsheet can assist you in
better understanding where to focus your attention in
the world naval market.
