2 NASCO North America’s premier transportation corridor coalition promoting a sustainable, secure and efficient trade & transportation system

3 NASCO Purpose NASCO’s mission is to increase economic development and competitiveness along the NASCO Corridor Network through promotion of a sustainable, secure and efficient trade and transportation system. NASCO supports multi-modal infrastructure improvements, technology / security innovations and environmental initiatives, and stimulates the dialogue between the public and private sectors about critical trade and transportation challenges.

4 NASCO Focus Areas Transportation/Supply Chain Security and Efficiency – Federal Grants and Pilot Projects – CTIP / Dynamic Mobility – North American Inland Port Network (NAIPN) – Advocacy and Local / Regional Projects Sustainable, Green Corridor – Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC) Partnership – EPA Smartway and Blue Skyways Collaborative – NGV Coalition – NASCO Corridor model Logistics Workforce Development – Logistics Training Program with Workforce Solutions – NASCO Educational Consortium – International Trade Center - Small Business Development Center – US Department of Commerce (Export / Import Programs) – NASCO Mexico Committee – Leaders’ Summit and Leadership Meetings – NASCO Corridor Regional Meetings – The NASCO Report and www.nascocorridor.com

5 U.S. Economy & Freight Transport Every product purchased must be transported As U.S. economy is increasingly linked to economies of other nations, supply chain and transport networks become more complex Services are now fastest-growing part of the economy Freight transport and logistics sector has 2 nd -fastest rate of growth among service industries and supports integration of all other economic sectors Freight volumes increase with increased consumption, bigger population growth Manufacturing output continues to grow Freight activity increases with the efficiency of U.S. just-in-time delivery and supply strategies International trade stimulates growing export and import volumes U.S. DOT forecasts freight transport will grow 90% to 229 bln tons in 2035 from 15 bln tons in 2004 and up 92% to 11.7 trillion ton-miles in 2035 from 6.1 trillion ton-miles in 2004.

6 Cost of Logistics as Share of US GDP

7 Global Growth 2030 The 2007 World Bank Report titled "Global Economic Prospects: Managing the Next Wave of Globalization," said international trade in the world economy will rise from 25% of the world Gross Domestic Product at present to more than 33% of the world economy. The report's 'central scenario' predicts that the global economy could expand to $72 trillion U.S. in 2030 from $35 trillion U.S. in 2005. “This outcome represents only a slight acceleration of global growth compared to the past 25 years, but it is driven more than ever before by strong performance in developing countries," said Richard Newfarmer, the report's lead author and Economic Advisor in the WB Trade Department. "While exact numbers will undoubtedly turn out to be different, the underlying trends are relatively impervious to all but the most severe or disruptive shocks.

8 Import demand in developing countries Import demand from developing countries is emerging as a locomotive of the global economy," the report said. Continuing integration of markets will make jobs around the world more subject to competitive pressures. "As trade expands and technologies rapidly diffuse to developing countries, unskilled workers around the world — as well as some lower-skilled white collar workers — will face increasing competition across borders," he explained. "Rather than trying to preserve existing jobs, governments need to support dislocated workers and provide them with new opportunities. Improving education and labor market flexibility is a key part of the long-run solution." According to the report, globalization could spur faster growth in average incomes in the next 25 years than during 1980-2005, with developing countries playing a central role.

9 Hundreds of millions new Middle Class "By 2030, 1.2 billion people in developing countries—15 per cent of the world population—will belong to the "global middle class," up from 400 million today. This group will have a purchasing power of between $4,000 and $17,000 per capita, and will enjoy access to international travel, purchase automobiles and other advanced consumer durables, attain international levels of education, and play a major role in shaping policies and institutions in their own countries and the world economy.

10 Texas exports more than all U.S. States In 2010, U.S. surface transportation trade with its North American trade partners Canada and Mexico shot up a record 24.3% over 2009, the U.S. DOT confirmed in its 2010 trade report issued March 17. The 2010 increase was the largest annual percentage gain since the began tracking the data in 1994, when the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) entered into effect. The State of Texas, the No. 1 exporter among U.S. states, became the first U.S. state to record $100-billion-plus in trade with any other foreign nation - in this case Mexico, it's southern border neighbor and leading trade partner. In 2010, Texas did $114.5 billion in trade with Mexico, upwards of 40% of that trade covering cars and components for the North American auto industry, analysts said. Trade among the North American Free Trade Agreement partners increased to $791 billion in 2010, the DOT said. That total remained lower than pre-crisis peak of calendar 2008, which totaled $829.8 billion, the DOT said.

11 The rise of Mexico Goldman Sachs research on the Next 11 Emerging Markets (after its famous BRIC grouping of Brazil, Russia, India and China) places Mexico at the head of the pack. The Next 11 Report forecasts Mexico’s -- GDP already at $1.4 trillion USD and No. 11 in the world -- ahead of all G-7 nations (except USA) – including Germany – by 2038. Goldman Sachs forecasts that the Mexican economy will become the world’s 5 th largest economy by 2050. The criteria that Goldman Sachs used were macroeconomic stability, political maturity, openness of trade and investment policies and the quality of education. Mexico will surpass Canada in 2011 as supplier to the USA’s automobile production industry in a significant historic milestone.

12 Mexico in perspective Of the N-11 emerging nations, only Mexico, Korea and, to a lesser degree, Turkey and Vietnam, have both the potential and the conditions to rival the current major economies or the BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India, China) themselves. Goldman Sachs argues that the economic potential of Brazil, Russia, India, Mexico and China is such that they may become (with the USA) the six most dominant economies by the year 2050.BrazilRussiaIndia MexicoChina Due to Mexico's rapidly advancing infrastructure, increasing middle class and rapidly declining poverty rates it is expected to have a higher GDP per capita than all but three European countries by 2050. This new found local wealth also contributes to the nation's economy by creating a large domestic consumer market which in turn creates more jobs.

14 D/FW GDP: an EU nation The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) — the total value of goods and services produced — is larger than that of an entire European nation. According to the World Bank, Greece's gross domestic product in 2008 was $355 billion, ranking it 26th in the world. Meanwhile, statistics calculated for the same year by the U.S. Government's Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) determined that the metro area consisting of Dallas, Fort Worth and Arlington, Texas, had a gross domestic product of $379 billion. Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington actually ranks sixth among highest-GDP metro areas in the U.S. Five other metro areas have a bigger GDP than Greece — (in ascending order) in Washington, Houston, Chicago, Los Angeles and New York. New York City's economy, in fact, was about 3½ times the size of Greece's in 2008. The World Bank GDP measure - adjusted by "purchasing power parity" — a tweak that eliminates distortions based on the relative value of currencies -- puts adjusted GDP for Greece at $330 billion. The D/FW GDP already includes adjustment.
