Abstract
Economic performance is normally measured by Gross Domestic Product (GDP) . As with many other national-economic indicators, this aggregated value is restricted to a given administrative unit. In this analysis the considered GDP data was only available for the entire NUTS-3 regions (provinces). The distribution of the per-capita GDP in the Alpine arc on NUTS-3 level depicts significant disparities between the central parts and the eastern and western foothills of the Alpine arc and also within the same country. Interestingly, the southern foothills in Italy are generally characterised by a quite high per-capita GDP. Considering the aforementioned, these NUTS-3 regions that only partly cover the perimeter of the Alpine Convention territory attain one of the highest values. A similar phenomenon can be observed at the northern Alpine fringes (Germany, Switzerland). The respective regions of Oberbayern and the cantons of Glarus, Nidwalden as well as Salzburg and Liechtenstein are attaining minimum average per-capita GDPs above 30,000 EUR.
