SWOT analysis Hungary Strengths geographical and economic geographical

conditions

regional distribution terminal (HUB)

density of railway and road networks

high railway transport ratio

Weaknesses Transport network is radially structured.

Danube as infrastructure and the port network is not sufficient

low level mobility of workforce

intermodality and interoperability are incomplete, cooperation is poor between the sub-sectors

Opportunities the country and the capital may become a key

strategic geographical location

increase of the east-west trade turnover and between the EU and Asia – regional HUB

river may substantially increase in connection with the EU enlargement

emerging regionalism and the growth poles

Threats becoming a transit country: chance for only the

negative impacts

railway transport continues to lose market share

insufficient development: neighbouring countries may become competition in transport/logistics

shortage of financing

sub sector cooperation will be not efficient

Europe

Preparing for privatisation,

investment (80 M EUR)

More dominancy in the region

GLOBAL PLAYER!! State monopoly until 2015

German orientation,marginal impact of

private railways

Old sturcture will remain

New structure, but private railways not

started

Integrated operation

Outsorcing of assets, service remains state

monopoly
