Although the consolidation of the shipping sector started many years ago, the industry is still trying to understand its true impact. Business analysts and major stakeholders predicted the end of large mergers and acquisitions earlier this year at Global Liner Shipping Europe, but the challenge to make money and meet customer demands is still very real.

So in this month’s Pushing the Envelope, Lloyd’s List journalists examine the major trends, events, and new research that will undoubtedly leave a mark on shipping, including:

  • The legacy of the late Jacques Saadé, founder of what eventually became CMA CGM,
  • The increasing decline of the European shipping banker,
  • The recent report by freight insurer TT Club and consulting group McKinsey,
  • An overview of how Greek shipowners reacted to the tough market environment,
  • And the significance of a potential BW-Dorian merger in the bulk sector.
