HFW Ship Finance Briefing – Getting the deal through 2019

Getting the Deal Through – Ship Finance

“The growth of the shipping sector anticipated in 2018 did not entirely meet expectations in what remains a challenging market influenced by stagnant oil prices, the slower pace of Chinese economic growth, and in Europe, continuing uncertainty surrounding the terms of the UK’s exit from the European Union. Nevertheless, certain shipping subsectors, including dry bulk, tankers and containers, have recently seen increased earnings, with LNG reporting record rates.”

The latest edition of the Ship Finance Handbook in the Getting the Deal Through series covers numerous jurisdictions worldwide and provides insights into many areas of ship finance and vessel ownership affecting the international shipping industry.

The Ship Finance Handbook provides local insight and analysis on topics including: due diligence, vessel ownership and registration, debt repayment and enforcement, vessel mortgages, insolvency and restructuring, and available tax incentives and exemptions for vessel owners.

As leading experts in ship finance and reflecting its global reach, HFW has authored not only the UK chapter (Tony Rice and Ian Hughes) but also the UAE chapter (Tien Tai) and the Sweden chapter (Gudmund Bernitz).

HFW’s ship finance team has also recently contributed to a GTDT Q&A in relation to developments and trends in Ship Finance, which can be viewed here.
