1.- SHIPPING CONFIDENCE: HIGHEST LEVEL SINCE 2008

According to the latest Shipping Confidence Survey from international accountant and shipping adviser Moore Stephens, overall confidence levels in the shipping industry rose to their highest level for almost six years in the three-month period to February 2014. In February 2014, the average confidence level expressed by respondents in the markets in which they operate was 6.5 on a scale of 1 (low) to 10 (high), compared to the 6.1 recorded in the previous survey in November 2013. This is the highest figure since the 6.8 recorded when the survey was launched in May 2008. All categories of respondent to the survey reported improved levels of confidence compared to the previous survey. Confidence on the part of owners was up from 6.2 to 6.6, while the rating for charterers (up from 5.7 to 6.5) was the highest in the life of the survey. The rating for managers was up from 6.1 to 6.4, while that for brokers was up to 6.4 from the previous level of 5.6.

1. - MAERSK´S P3 ALLIANCE: U.S REGULATORY APPROVAL

P3 alliance has won the approval of the U.S Federal Maritime Commission (FMC)taking  a step closer to further approvals for the grouping widely opposed by Asian shippers. The FMC ruling will only apply to U.S. trades. The P3 alliance, which will have a fleet of 225 container ships totalling 2.5 million TEUs (twenty-foot-equivalent-unit containers), would operate 42 percent of the capacity on the Asia-Europe route, 24 per cent on the Transpacific and up to 42 per cent on the Transatlantic trade and could result in reduced competition on the U.S. trades. However,  transportation cost and transportation service will remain the same .  Separate approvals need to be given by the European Union and China’s Ministry of Commerce before the three partners can fully launch the P3 alliance.
