Book Competition and Regulation in Shipping and Shipping Related Industries

Download or read book Competition and Regulation in Shipping and Shipping Related Industries written by Antonis Antapassis and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-05-06 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maritime competition as an economic phenomenon is currently influenced by a number of factors both at EU and international level. From a legislative point of view, the recent repeal of EC Reg. 4056/1986 affects the treatment of horizontal agreements not only in the liner but also in the bulk sector, which was excluded until recently from the scope of EC secondary competition rules. However, competition distortions are not only a question of private arrangements. They emanate also from measures and practices incompatible with the freedom to provide services, Member states’ protectionism and international mandatory regulation. This volume comparatively and comprehensively examines all these issues, by bringing together contributions from distinguished academics. Particular focus is given on private shipping cartels, the liberalization of cabotage and port services, indirect competition-distorting factors and the latest developments on international regulation of carriage of goods by sea.

The Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) study was launched in response to concerns that the European Union s (EU s) repeal of the shipping liner conference block exemption might produce freight rate reductions in EU liner trades relative to U.S. liner trades. Seeking input on the issue from the shipping public, the FMC issued an EU Study Notice of Inquiry in November 2010. The primary issue addressed in the Federal Maritime Commission's multi-year study is: What impact has the repeal of the block exemption in Europe had on U.S. liner trades?"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maritime Economics The Blackwell Companion to Maritime Economics presents a comprehensive and in-depth coverage of shipping and port economics. Featuring contributions from the most respected international specialists in the field, this reference offers up-to-date insights into maritime carriers and their markets (e.g., freight, intermodal and passenger), shipping economics (e.g., dry bulk, liquid bulk, container, regulation, taxation, seafaring, safety and piracy), ship economics (e.g., equity, bond and hedging ship finance) and port economics (e.g., governance, labor, competition, efficiency, choice, investment, clusters, inspection and security). In addition to providing a comprehensive survey of the literature on past and current practices on a wide range of maritime topics, new empirical research on safety and piracy in shipping, ship finance, and container terminal efficiency is presented as well as original theories for maritime carriers and ports that provide greater insights into their operations. With its unprecedented breadth of coverage and range of scholarship, The Blackwell Companion to Maritime Economics represents the new standard resource for any and all topics related to maritime economics.

Book The Impact of Liner Shipping Trade and Competition Regulations on the Market Structure  Maritime Transport Costs and Seaborne Trade Flows

Download or read book The Impact of Liner Shipping Trade and Competition Regulations on the Market Structure Maritime Transport Costs and Seaborne Trade Flows written by Fabien Bertho and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation aims at assessing the impact of liner shipping trade and competition regulations on the market structure, prices, and seaborne trade flows. To quantify the overall level of trade restrictions in the liner shipping sector, I construct an original Service Trade Restrictiveness Index (STRI). The original STRI is included in a two-stage econometric analysis. Since barriers to trade are likely to influence seaborne trade through maritime transport costs (MTCs), in a first stage, I assess the impact of trade restrictions on MTCs. And, in a second stage I assess the impact of MTCs on seaborne trade flows. I show that barriers to trade affect positively MTCs and that MTCs affect negatively seaborne trade flows. Thus, barriers to trade have an indirect and negative impact on seaborne trade flows. Furthermore, I show that distance affects positively MTCs. The results also suggest that besides affecting negatively seaborne trade through MTCs, distance affect directly and positively seaborne trade. I assess the impact of regulatory barriers to entry on the market structure and MTCs. In a first stage, I assess the impact of regulations on the market structure. In a second stage, I assess the impact of the market structure on MTCs. I show that the presence of maritime conferences does not affect the number of carriers on routes while the presence of discussion agreements does. Moreover, when they reach a critical level, barriers to trade limit the number of carriers. Furthermore, I show barriers to trade affect MTCs through the market structure and marginal costs. Finally, I show that shipping exercise a market power even though this effect is small.

Book Economic Regulation of the Container Shipping Industry

Download or read book Economic Regulation of the Container Shipping Industry written by Rawindaran Nair and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The regulatory framework for the liner shipping industry has been changing rapidly in recent years and the container shipping businesses which provide scheduled services along principal trade routes have faced unprecedented challenges to cope with the transformation. The leading carriers are also transforming their own structural features by either purchasing larger ships or entering into mergers and acquisitions as well as forming operational arrangements such as transnational alliances and container consortia. These developments in the industry are regarded as crucial to the maintenance of a stable, regular and long term commitment to support the provision of scheduled services along these major trade routes. This book examines the economic regulatory framework of the container liner shipping industry in the context of the industry's leading role in international trade and transport. It explores the consequences of the actions of shipping companies in their interpretations of the regulatory framework for such scheduled operations and provides a theoretical framework to allow the industry to incorporate future regulatory changes.
