Shipping

  • Does your management reporting provide relevant, reliable and timely information to support your decision making process?
  • Are your operations carried out in a risk-free, efficient and effective way? Do you need to reduce or reconfigure your cost base?
  • Do you have a robust budgeting process and a yearly budget which is used as a benchmark for actual performance throughout the year? 
  • Are there any grey areas in your reporting lines, roles and responsibilities which create friction and conflicts?
  • Do you need to comply with SEC requirements in relation to SOX s404 and XBRL?

Our shipping experience and expertise

The uncertain global economic environment, the oversupply of new and bigger vessels, the unprecedented volatility in the freight rates and vessel values, the risk of piracy, the increasing regulation and environmental concerns - are factors which have added to a very challenging business environment that puts shipping executives to the test.

Companies that are able to critically assess the situation can navigate a challenging business environment in a way that makes the most of opportunities arising. Those who don’t know enough about their organisation or the external market will be inclined to take the path of least resistance, leading to defensive and unsuitable actions. 

Our dedicated shipping industry team is constantly developing specialised services and business solutions to assist you with the increasing complexities and challenges. We can help you understand the current issues and industry trends and help make decisions that are in the best interests of your company.
