You're in the wrong thread bro

Karnit Flug, the governor of Bank of Israel, said that the damage resulting from Operation Protective Edge would be up to NIS 5 billion, or 0.5% of GDP, but that Israel would recover in a timely manner. "Experience shows that the economy is immune at the macro level, and recovers fairly quickly, although it is clear that people have been hurt, especially residents of the south, small businesses, and people affected by the issued emergency call-up orders," she said.


Bank of Israel: war damaged 0.5% of GDP, to recover within a year

On the other hand, the Ministry of Defense is demanding extra NIS 6-8 million in compensation for Operation Protective Edge. At a press conference today, Israel's Minister of Finance Yair Lapid said, "We won't raise taxes. The economy needs growth engines right now, not handicap weights. There's no reason to raise taxes at this time, however, it will be necessary to decide next year about taxes. The defense requirements resulting from this operation are liable to grow, among other things, and the government will have to decide whether to raise taxes or cut civilian spending in 2015."

In its monetary report published this week, the Bank of Israel's Research Department economists stated that as a result of the war, the government would not be able to meet the deficit target (2.5% of GDP) without a tax hike and budget cuts or postponements in spending programs. And while the Israeli hi-tech economy looks set to emerge largely unscathed, its month-long war with Hamas in Gaza has added fuel to a Palestinian boycott movement which may damage investor sentiment towards Israel at the margins.


Jewish billionaires rushed donations to Israel

Though the boycott movement will not hole Israel's economy below the water line, they have the potential to sour confidence. Alex Joffe, a Middle East historian who tracks international action against Israel, predicts the Gaza conflict will power the nascent consumer and business backlash, citing recent steps taken by companies in Belgium and Britain, among others. "These moves, plus growing anti-semitic protests and attacks throughout Europe, suggest that when the fighting in Gaza stops, Israel will be targeted for economic boycotts, in international forums, and in other contexts like colleges and universities," he wrote in a commentary.

But the damages can be controlled. Israel's broader economy is built on hi-tech innovation, pharmaceuticals and engineering. In that sense, until people start boycotting agricultural technologies, computer sciences, electronics, genetics, medical sciences, optics, solar energy and various fields of engineering, Israel's economic survival remains guaranteed. To effectively cripple the economy of Israel, there would have to be a complete boycott of technological giants the likes of Intel, Microsof, IBM, Cisco Systems, Motorola, and the global discontinued usage of solar energy, satellites, aeroplanes, irrigation, computers, electro-optics, communication devices and medicines, since many technologies formulated in Israel are integrated into these devices.


BSD movement gaining steam in Europe

"The economy is not completely isolated from these (boycott) things, but certain elements such as the hi-tech sectors, are keeping Israel strong, and that's where the foreign direct investment is going," said Paul Gamble, the director of sovereign ratings at Fitch, a credit ratings agency. "I'm comfortable that will continue, as the world demands technological evolution all the time." Citibank agreed, "We're not at the stage of BDS impairing investment in Israel - there's a pretty captive audience of investors willing to invest in Israeli pharma or hi-tech," said the bank in a note.

And it is the Asians who are now attracted to Israel's technological prowess. Li Ka Shing, Asia's richest man, for instance, has become one of Israel's biggest foreign investors. Li has pumped cash into Israeli start-up companies such as Waze, Tippa, Magisto, Ra'anana, Wibbitz, Onavo, as well as Wibbitz, CorePhotonics and other 20 Israeli companies, not to mention the $130 million donation to Israel's Technion Institute of Technology. Some recent billion-dollar acquisition include China's Bright Food for Israeli food conglomerate Tnuva, prompting Israeli Economics Minister, Naftali Bennett to say that Israel is shifting its economic resources to "China, China China."


Unexpected boost from the East: Li Ka Shing leads Chinese investors to Israel

In East Asia, where Jewish achievements is highly admired for, investors are pouring capital into Israeli start-up. According to Israel's Economy Ministry, Asia is set to beat out the United States as the major destination for Israeli exports, after Europe in 2014, with over 21% of exports now headed East, and it is likely to assume that Li Ka Shing had played a part in that. This assessment is paired with facts on the ground, which show increased cooperation and interest in all aspects of Israeli tech from countries like China, Japan and South Korea. As Israeli Chief Scientist Avi Hasson told Bloomberg News: "We are seeing more and more Chinese activity in Israeli high tech. Investment in venture capital by strategic and institutional Chinese investors, direct investments in companies and also acquisitions."

Still, the war has serious impact on the tourism and service industries. When he opened his Jerusalem restaurant last year, former butcher Pini Levi drew national acclaim for his dish of coiled, battered and fried spinal cord served with a fiery hot sauce. But over this summer of war in Gaza, Levi said his German Colony restaurant, Pini's Kitchen, has taken such a drubbing he may have to close. "We lost 70 % of our business. We can't get on like this," Levi said. "It's been two months, and we don't see the end."


To cripple Israel economy, the world needs to abandon technologies and medicines

Businesses in cities near and far from Gaza have contracted over the summer, and business leaders are anxiously watching the cease-fire negotiations to see if they will get relief. Pini Shani, director of incoming tourism at the Ministry of Tourism, said business was down about 20% in July, the latest month for which he has figures. But even with the war now winding down, the months ahead don't look much better. Many groups have canceled trips for September, October and November, and other tourists have avoided making future bookings. In the 2006 Lebanon war, it took 9 months for Israeli tourism to recover.

To counter the dip in this year's figures, Shani said his office is plowing 100 million shekels - about US$29 million - in marketing Israel to the United States, Russia and Europe. "We don't mention security directly," he said. "We market how pleasant Israel is, and we assume the tourist knows how to evaluate security. Also, if there is a cease-fire, the security situation will calm down and those messages will not be as relevant." Other sectors battered by the summer operation include the service industries, industry and retail, and agricultural production in southern Israel. Chen Peretz, a spokesman for the Finance Ministry, said the government has a compensation fund for businesses up to about 25 miles from Gaza.


Gaza announced that the scale of damages is 200% of GDP, economy now dead

Damage to the Israeli economy however, pales in scope and impact to the damage in Gaza, which Palestinian Deputy Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa estimated to be about US$6 billion - 200% the size of the Gazan economy. Deputy economy minister Taysir Amro said the figure included only "direct damages" to the Gaza and warned it could climb further once additional impacts on the 1.8 million population are taken into account. Business leaders said that 175 of Gaza's most successful industrial plants had also taken devastating hits, plunging an already despairing economy into a deeper abyss.

Ali Hayek, head of Gaza's federation of industries, said these factories directly provided perhaps 5,000 of the most stable jobs in this impoverished Palestinian sliver, where the latest estimates of unemployment are as high as 47 percent. The collateral damage is exponential: Sabha, Gaza's only producer of tomato paste, has contracts with 5,000 farmers, Mr. Hayek said. Legions of drivers will be without cargo. Rebuilding anything is that much harder with 63 construction companies offline, including several cement makers. "After 30 days of war, the economic situation has become, like, dead," said Mr. Hayek.
