Trans\u00adport and logi\u00adstics compa\u00adnies connect global goods markets and are an essen\u00adtial part of any economy. The diverse range of products and services offe\u00adred by market parti\u00adci\u00adpants, global and regio\u00adnal networ\u00adking, diffe\u00adrent modes of trans\u00adpor\u00adta\u00adtion, and diffe\u00adrent market struc\u00adtures create a multi\u00adface\u00adted picture that is often percei\u00adved as less trans\u00adpa\u00adrent than in other sectors.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The aim of this article is to intro\u00adduce the reader to the trans\u00adpor\u00adta\u00adtion and logi\u00adstics sector and high\u00adlight the key issues in the histo\u00adri\u00adcal deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment of M&A tran\u00adsac\u00adtions.

The logi\u00adstics market at a glance<\/strong><\/p>\n

At US$3.7 tril\u00adlion, the logi\u00adstics market repres\u00adents around 9% of the global gross natio\u00adnal product of US$40 tril\u00adlion (2008) and is divi\u00added accor\u00adding to the diffe\u00adrent modes of trans\u00adport (see Fig. 1). \u2014 Dyna\u00admism, size, corre\u00adla\u00adtion with global trade volu\u00admes and comple\u00adxity of both the exis\u00adting submar\u00adkets and the market parti\u00adci\u00adpants them\u00adsel\u00adves are the key charac\u00adte\u00adristics of the global logi\u00adstics market. Basi\u00adcally, a distinc\u00adtion can be made between carri\u00aders (opera\u00adtion of means of transport\/networks) and forwar\u00adders (purchase or sale and coor\u00addi\u00adna\u00adtion of trans\u00adport flows along the modes air, sea and road). In addi\u00adtion, 3PL (third-party-logi\u00adstics) or contract logi\u00adstics compa\u00adnies provide compre\u00adhen\u00adsive custo\u00admer-speci\u00adfic logi\u00adstics services. These range from warehousing to the manage\u00adment of trans\u00adport services and the outsour\u00adcing of produc\u00adtion steps and services as part of the custo\u00admer\u2019s value-added process to the orga\u00adniza\u00adtion of main\u00adten\u00adance and reverse logi\u00adstics solu\u00adti\u00adons. 4PL provi\u00adders see them\u00adsel\u00adves as \u201cnon-asset-based\u201d or holi\u00adstic logi\u00adstics provi\u00adders that deve\u00adlop supply chain solu\u00adti\u00adons for the custo\u00admer and involve various service provi\u00adders and 3PL and 2PL provi\u00adders in the implementation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":41062,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"wp_typography_post_enhancements_disabled":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[2452,2509,2533,2534],"product_tag":[1477,1860,1863,1865,1869,1872],"class_list":["post-43991","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-ebook-en","product_cat-fyb-2012-2","product_cat-dr-michael-rolle-en","product_cat-alexander-doll-en","product_tag-ma-transactions","product_tag-michael-role","product_tag-alexander-doll-en","product_tag-logistics-market","product_tag-strategic-investors","product_tag-supply-chain-solutions","pa_sprache-english-3","pa_sprache-german","first","outofstock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"yoast_head":"\nPrivate Equity and Corporate Mergers & Acquisitions in the Global Logistics Market - FYB Financial Yearbook<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fyb.de\/en\/produkt\/private-equity-and-corporate-mergers-acquisitions-in-the-global-logistics-market\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Private Equity and Corporate Mergers & Acquisitions in the Global Logistics Market - FYB Financial Yearbook\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Transport and logistics companies connect global goods markets and are an essential part of any economy.
