In 2013, the global IT industry will slow the rate of growth
Expenditures on information technology this year for the first time in the history overcome the barrier of 2 trillion dollars. This is going to happen despite the slowdown of the Chinese economy as well as global economic problems. According to the forecast IDC, in 2013 the world economy will spend on information technology by 4.6% more than in 2012. Despite the fact that the trend growth is not dried out, analysts say that last year's growth was shown above 6% and the current 4.6% - a globally sizeable slowdown.
The analyst said that in addition to China, the company expects the decline in IT spending in Europe, Canada, Brazil, the Middle East, Afirke and much of Asia and the Pacific Rim. "While the growth in demand for tablets and smartphones will continue to grow, increasing implementation of these devices will not be able to beat the other negative industry trends and overall there will be a slowdown in growth dynamics.
According to a number of areas, such as the sale of personal computers and certain corporate decisions will be shown noticeable drop in performance "- say at IDC. company also points to a factor as fluctuations in exchange rates. For most IT manufacturers, these fluctuations will be another factor with a negative sign. Most of the U.S. software manufacturers and providers of cloud services will miss 2-5% of revenue due to adverse movements in the U.S. dollar against major currencies - the euro, yen, yuan and vonam.
