Shipping Matters

After almost a decade in the doldrums, the tide turned for the Sale and Purchase (S&P) market in 2020. Fast forward to today and we see a very different picture - with full orderbooks, full shipyards and considerably higher vessel prices. In this episode of Shipping Matters, SSY’s Toby English, Ben Pusey and Michael Mervyn Jones and special guest George Panayides (CEO of NS Lemos & Co Ltd.) examine the underlying factors that have driven this turnaround and discuss how long can this upward trend continue.
