Environmental consciousness - a major challenge for Shipping & Ports
Environmental consciousness in the Shipping business
We are fully aware and thoroughly understand the issues relating to environmental hazards and have helped many clients in this area.
Shipping and Ports have been operating in an increasingly challenging economic environment, characterized by demand and supply imbalances, volatile freight rates and vessel values, increasing regulation, environmental concerns, piracy and geopolitical risks, among others. All these factors have contributed to a demanding business environment that puts even seasoned shipping executives to the test.
