The Economic Impact of Travel & Tourism 2013

The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) has been investing in economic impact research for over 20 years. This research assesses the Travel & Tourism industry’s contribution to GDP and jobs for 184 countries and 24 regions and economic groups in the world. Our ten-year forecasts are unique in the information they provide to assist governments and private companies plan policy and investment decisions for the future.

2012 demonstrated again the resilience of the Travel & Tourism industry in the face of continued economic turmoil, as economic growth slowed and was even negative in key global markets. The latest annual research from WTTC and our research partner Oxford Economics, shows that Travel & Tourism’s contribution to GDP grew for the third consecutive year in 2012, and created more than 4 million new jobs. The strongest growth in 2012 was evident in international demand as appetite for travel beyond national borders, from leisure and business visitors, remains strong.

Travel & Tourism’s importance to the wider economy continued to grow in 2012. Its total contribution comprised 9% of global GDP (US $6.6 trillion) and generated over 260 million jobs – 1 in 11 of the world’s total jobs. The industry outperformed the entire wider economy in 2012, growing faster than other notable industries such as manufacturing, financial services and retail.

With such resilience in demand and an ability to generate high employment, the importance of Travel & Tourism as a tool for economic development and job creation is clear. In total, the industry contributed to over 10% of all new jobs created in 2012. Less restrictive visa regimes and a reduction in punitive taxation levels would help the industry to contribute even more to broader economic development and better fulfil the clear demand for international travel.

While 2013 will present further challenges for the global economy and the Travel & Tourism industry, we remain optimistic that Travel & Tourism will continue to grow, outpace growth of the wider economy and remain a leading generator of jobs.

In the longer-term, demand from and within emerging markets will continue to rise in significance. Destinations need to be willing to invest in infrastructure suitable for new sources of demand to achieve the clear growth potential that exists. For example, we forecast that China will overtake the US by 2023 as the world’s largest Travel & Tourism economy, measured in total GDP terms (2012 prices), and the size of the outbound market.

WTTC Travel & Tourism Economic Impact 20132

Defining the economiccontribution of Travel & Tourism

Travel & Tourism is an important economic activity in most countries around the world. As well as its direct economic impact, the industry has significant indirect and induced impacts. The UN Statistics Division-approved Tourism SatelliteAccounting methodology (TSA:RMF 2008) quantifies only the direct contribution of Travel & Tourism. But WTTC recognises that Travel & Tourism's total contribution is much greater, and aims to capture its indirect and induced impacts through its annual research.

DIRECT CONTRIBUTIONThe direct contribution of Travel & Tourism to GDP reflects the ‘internal’ spending on Travel & Tourism (total spending within a particular country on Travel & Tourism by residents and non-residents for business and leisure purposes) as well as government 'individual' spending - spending by government on Travel & Tourism services directly linked to visitors, such as cultural (eg museums) or recreational (eg national parks).

The direct contribution of Travel & Tourism to GDP is calculated to be consistent with the output, as expressed in National Accounting, of tourism-characteristic sectors such as hotels, airlines, airports, travel agents and leisure and recreation services that deal directly with tourists.The direct contribution of Travel & Tourism to GDP is calculated from total internal spending by ‘netting out’ the purchases made by the different tourism sectors. This measure is consistent with the definition of Tourism GDP, specified in the 2008 Tourism Satellite Account: Recommended Methodological Framework (TSA: RMF 2008).

TOTAL CONTRIBUTION The total contribution of Travel & Tourism includes its ‘wider impacts’ (ie the indirect and induced impacts) on the economy. The ‘indirect’ contribution includes the GDP and jobs supported by:

Travel & Tourism investment spending – an important aspect of both current and future activity that includes investment activity such as the purchase of new aircraft and construction of new hotels;

Government 'collective' spending, which helps Travel & Tourism activity in many different ways as it is made on behalf of the ‘community at large’ – eg tourism marketing and promotion, aviation, administration, security services, resort area security services, resort area sanitation services, etc;

Domestic purchases of goods and services by the sectors dealing directly with tourists - including, for example, purchases of food and cleaning services by hotels, of fuel and catering services by airlines, and IT services by travel agents.

The ‘induced’ contribution measures the GDP and jobs supported by the spending of those who are directly or indirectly employed by the Travel & Tourism industry.

PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO CHANGES IN METHODOLOGY BETWEEN 2010 AND 2011, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO COMPARE FIGURES PUBLISHED BY WTTC FROM 2011 ONWARDS WITH THE SERIES PUBLISHED IN PREVIOUS YEARS.

Travel & Tourism's contribution to GDP1

The direct contribution of Travel & Tourism to GDP in 2012 was XCD455.7mn (13.3% of GDP). This is forecast to rise by 4.9% to XCD478.2mn in 2013.This primarily reflects the economic activity generated by industries such as hotels, travel agents, airlines and other passenger transportation services (excluding commuter services). But it also includes, for example, the activities of the restaurant and leisure industries directly supported by tourists.

The direct contribution of Travel & Tourism to GDP is expected to grow by 5.4% pa to XCD809.8mn (17.0% of GDP) by 2023.

The economic contribution ofTravel & Tourism: Growth


Glossary

KEy DEfInITIOnSTravel & Tourism – relates to the activity of travellers on

trips outside their usual environment with a duration of less

than one year. Economic activity related to all aspects of

such trips is measured within the research.

Direct contribution to GDP – GDP generated by

industries that deal directly with tourists, including hotels,

travel agents, airlines and other passenger transport

services, as well as the activities of restaurant and leisure

industries that deal directly with tourists. It is equivalent to

total internal Travel & Tourism spending (see below) within

a country less the purchases made by those industries

(including imports). In terms of the UN’s Tourism Satellite

Account methodology it is consistent with total GDP

calculated in table 6 of the TSA: RMF 2008.

Direct contribution to employment – the number of

direct jobs within the Travel & Tourism industry. This is

consistent with total employment calculated in table 7 of the

TSA: RMF 2008.

Total contribution to GDP – GDP generated directly by

the Travel & Tourism industry plus its indirect and induced

impacts (see below).

Total contribution to employment – the number of jobs

generated directly in the Travel & Tourism industry plus the

indirect and induced contributions (see below).

DIRECT SPEnDInG ImPaCTSVisitor exports – spending within the country by

international tourists for both business and leisure trips,

including spending on transport, but excluding international

spending on education. This is consistent with total inbound

tourism expenditure in table 1 of the TSA: RMF 2008.

Domestic Travel & Tourism spending – spending within

a country by that country’s residents for both business and

leisure trips. Multi-use consumer durables are not included

since they are not purchased solely for tourism purposes.

This is consistent with total domestic tourism expenditure

in table 2 of the TSA: RMF 2008. Outbound spending by

residents abroad is not included here, but is separately

identified according to the TSA: RMF 2008 (see below).

Government individual spending – spending by

government on Travel & Tourism services directly linked

to visitors, such as cultural (eg museums) or recreational

(eg national parks).

Internal tourism consumption – total revenue generated

within a country by industries that deal directly with tourists

including visitor exports, domestic spending and government

individual spending. This does not include spending abroad

by residents. This is consistent with total internal tourism

expenditure in table 4 of the TSA: RMF 2008.

Business Travel & Tourism spending – spending

on business travel within a country by residents and

international visitors.

Leisure Travel & Tourism spending – spending on leisure

travel within a country by residents and international visitors.

InDIRECT anD InDuCED ImPaCTS Indirect contribution – the contribution to GDP and jobs of

the following three factors:

• Capitalinvestment – includes capital investment

spending by all sectors directly involved in the Travel

& Tourism industry. This also constitutes investment

spending by other industries on specific tourism assets

such as new visitor accommodation and passenger

transport equipment, as well as restaurants and leisure

facilities for specific tourism use. This is consistent with

total tourism gross fixed capital formation in table 8 of the

TSA: RMF 2008.

• Governmentcollectivespending – general government

spending in support of general tourism activity. This can

include national as well as regional and local government

spending. For example, it includes tourism promotion,

visitor information services, administrative services and

other public services. This is consistent with total collective

tourism consumption in table 9 of TSA: RMF 2008.

• Supply-chaineffects– purchases of domestic goods

and services directly by different sectors of the Travel &

Tourism industry as inputs to their final tourism output.

Induced contribution – the broader contribution to GDP

and employment of spending by those who are directly or

indirectly employed by Travel & Tourism.

OThER InDICaTORSOutbound expenditure – spending outside the country

by residents on all trips abroad. This is fully aligned with total

outbound tourism expenditure in table 3 of the TSA: RMF 2008.

foreign visitor arrivals – the number of arrivals of foreign

visitors, including same-day and overnight visitors (tourists) to

the country.


WTTC has an on-going commitment to align its economic impact research with the UN Statistics Division-approved 2008 Tourism Satellite Account: Recommended Methodological Framework (TSA:RMF 2008) and has made small revisions to the research both this year and in 2012, following a full refinement in 2011. This has involved further benchmarking of country reports to official, published TSAs, including for countries which are reporting data for the first time, as well as existing countries reporting an additional year’s data. New country TSAs incorporated this year were Jordan, Italy and Sweden. As part of the alignment process in 2012, international travel expenditure inflows and outflows related to education were excluded from the data. Three new countries have been added in 2013 (Georgia, Iraq and Uzbekistan), bringing the total countries covered to 184 country reports. Additionally, we also produce a world report and reports on 17 world regions and sub-regions. This year there are 7 reports for special economic and geographic groups, including, for the first time, the Organization of American States (OAS) and the Commonwealth.
