The Ship Financing Portal, designed to improve access to financing for the shipping sector and the wider maritime industry, is now online, reports the European Commission.
The Portal in a Nutshell
- Consolidated Resource: The portal centralizes access to various pan-European financing products, simplifying the search for suitable financing opportunities for stakeholders across the maritime sector.
- Current Information: It provides up-to-date details on available grants, loans, and other financing products administered by the EU, Member States, and private financial institutions, ensuring users are informed about the latest financing opportunities.
- Sector-Specific Solutions: The portal lists financing products relevant to the shipping sector, facilitating developing and deploying technologies and services to promote shipping decarbonization. This aligns with the EU’s commitment to steer the maritime industry towards a green transition.
The launch of the portal is a further step in supporting the greening of the maritime industry. The portal addresses the lack of available information on financing opportunities.
The European Commission invites all maritime stakeholders, including small and medium-sized businesses, financial institutions, and other organizations to explore the Ship Financing Portal and take advantage of the diverse financing opportunities available. This initiative underscores the EU’s dedication to fostering a sustainable and competitive maritime sector.
