Including negative signals: a more comprehensive view of global industry

We are expanding our database on global industrial investment to include tracking of negative decisions: site closures, downsizing, project shutdowns.

Our experience in France has shown how invaluable this monitoring is for understanding the economic climate. Behind the positive announcements that outline the future of industry, these more difficult decisions highlight the fragility of a sector, a company or a region.

With this global expansion, our database will offer a more comprehensive vision, documenting not only the projects that drive the industry forward, but also those that reveal its tensions.

πŸ‘‰ By August, our teams had already entered the first 70 negative decisions:

  • 70% concern the United States - a sign, perhaps, of the limits of the new tariff policies?
  • The sectors most affected are automotive, pharmaceuticals and paper.
  • In all, 23,000 jobs lost.

These signals are invaluable for anticipating trends, identifying areas of fragility and feeding your analyses.
