S&P Global To Conduct Online Shipping Forum

838

Shipping has faced challenge after challenge in recent history, from IMO2020 regulations, the blockage of the Suez Canal, congestion, constrained supply chains and the impending environmental regulations such as Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) and Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII), reports S&P Global.

Challenges of the shipping industry

For the near future can we expect radical change? Will the market continue to be under extreme pressure? How will demand centers influence rates?

But the most important question remains: will shipping markets buoy or sink?

Join S&P Global Platts Asia Pacific Shipping Forum to learn why shipping always takes the center stage in commodities markets.

This thought-leadership forum will address container, tanker, and dry-bulk markets with specialized critical content. Furthermore, we will explore bunker pricing outlooks and scrubber economics. The Forum will conclude with a vital panel discussion on the challenges shipping may face due to energy transition.

For a holistic look at shipping markets, the Forum is a must attend event!
