It is a digital product comprising an ebook and a statistical appendix of sectoral indicators, available for download from the Istat website at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/publication\/report-on-the-competitiveness-of-productive-sectors-edition-2026-executive-summary\/\">italian page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ebook aims to analyse the position of the Italian economy, sectors, and businesses within the current international landscape, characterised by trade restrictions imposed by the U.S. administration. As in previous editions, the core topics of the Report\u2019s analysis are examined at three levels: macroeconomic (in Chapter 1), sectoral (in Chapter 2), and microeconomic (in Chapter 3), to reflect the varied impact on the system as a whole and on the various segments of the Italian production system. The complete <a href=\"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Rapporto-Competitivita-2026-Ebook.pdf\">Report on the Competitiveness of Productive Sectors \u2013 2026 Edition<\/a>  is available exclusively in Italian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The statistical appendix makes use of the extensive information available on economic sectors. For each production sector, a database of around 80 indicators is provided, where possible in time series and with sectoral, territorial, size-related and enterprise-type breakdowns. Over the years, these databases have been progressively enriched with information from statistical registers on enterprises, covering the internal workforce, foreign trade, corporate groups, and geographical presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For each sector of manufacturing and services, summary sheets are also available, presenting the main indicators on the structure, strategies and performance of enterprises. The economic data on the sheets is updated in real time and can be downloaded from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/it\/competitivita\">this webpage<\/a> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the executive summary of the Italian Report on the Competitiveness of Productive Sectors, in its 14th edition in 2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":121527,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4095],"tags":[3175,3865,3197,3467,3255,3278,3334,3867,3868,3850,3851,3473,3231,3518],"regione":[],"tema":[4057,4070,4067,4068],"class_list":["post-121526","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-publication","tag-competitiveness","tag-competitivita-settori-produttivi-en","tag-constructions","tag-enterprises","tag-industry","tag-manufacturing","tag-productivity","tag-rapporto-competitivita-en","tag-servizi-2-en","tag-statistical-books","tag-statistical-books-themes","tag-trade","tag-turnover","tag-worker","tema-enterprises","tema-external-trade","tema-industry-and-construction","tema-services"],"meta_fields":{"data_pubblicazione":"","descrizioneperiodo":"","titolobreve":"","news":"","news_rss":"","sottotitolo":""},"acf":[],"wpml_current_locale":"en_US","wpml_translations":[],"tags-info":[{"id":3175,"label":"competitiveness","slug":"competitiveness"},{"id":3865,"label":"competitivit\u00e0 settori produttivi","slug":"competitivita-settori-produttivi-en"},{"id":3197,"label":"constructions","slug":"constructions"},{"id":3467,"label":"enterprises","slug":"enterprises"},{"id":3255,"label":"industry","slug":"industry"},{"id":3278,"label":"manufacturing","slug":"manufacturing"},{"id":3334,"label":"productivity","slug":"productivity"},{"id":3867,"label":"rapporto competitivit\u00e0","slug":"rapporto-competitivita-en"},{"id":3868,"label":"servizi","slug":"servizi-2-en"},{"id":3850,"label":"statistical books","slug":"statistical-books"},{"id":3851,"label":"statistical books themes","slug":"statistical-books-themes"},{"id":3473,"label":"trade","slug":"trade"},{"id":3231,"label":"turnover","slug":"turnover"},{"id":3518,"label":"worker","slug":"worker"}],"categories-info":[{"id":4095,"label":"Publication","slug":"publication"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/121526","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=121526"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/121526\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":122190,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/121526\/revisions\/122190"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/121527"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=121526"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=121526"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=121526"},{"taxonomy":"regione","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/regione?post=121526"},{"taxonomy":"tema","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tema?post=121526"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
