Marine Money 9th London Ship Finance Forum 2018 | Marine Money International | 24 January 2018 | The Dorchester London, 53 Park Lane, Mayfair, London W1K 1QA, UK

For the first time in many years there appears to be growth across the globe, vessel deliveries seem to be moderating and there is renewed optimism across most shipping sectors. Is this really the beginning of sustained profitability for the industry or will it be short term with regulation, protectionism and newbuilding orders threatening to spoil the recovery.

At the Marine Money London conference leading shipping companies and financiers will meet to discuss the new opportunity, the way to finance it and the risks involved. Whether it be catching dry bulk on the upside, financing big projects with Chinese leasing or taking boutique finance for second hand purchases the Marine Money London 2018 agenda will cover the red hot topics of the current market.

London has its own challenges with Brexit looming but it remains central to finance, broking, legal and insurance. It is between the capital of Wall Street and the cargo demand of the Far East. And it is the place that shipowners from near and far call a home away from home.

“Optimism and Opportunity”

Our 2018 Marine Money London conference on Wednesday 24th January 2018 will focus on the current optimism in the market and where the new opportunities can be found and financed. Over 300 shipping executives from across the globe will meet at our London conference to start the year to discuss opportunity, investment and risks – in other words - how to stay ahead and be an industry leader.

If you have ideas for topics and discussions, or if you would like to take part as a participant or sponsor or branding your company and services, please get in touch with us at the details below. Our sponsorship categories available for this event are: Lunch Sponsor, Registration Sponsor, Prime Sponsor and Corporate Sponsor - please let us know if you would like a proposal.
