Strategic Maritime Policy Management
Strategic Maritime Policy Management
The Shipping Industry is witnessing some radical changes in recent times. Maritime nations have benefited immensely from international shipping which acts as catalyst in international trading. The maritime sector has experienced a period of boom and burst culminating in what often is regarded as excess capacity. To understand how strategic maritime policy is to merchant shipping, national economies, ports authorities and shippers in general the following questions therefore are necessary.
- How best would national economies exploit the opportunities of global trade through international shipping?
- How best would shipping companies (service provider) benefit from servicing international trade through international shipping?
- How best would the port industry (terminal facility provider) benefits from the facilities provided to international shipping in facilitating global trade?
- How best would shippers benefit from global trade through international shipping?
These questions necessitated the Strategic Maritime Policy Management Course to maximize the benefits derivable from participating in global trade through international shipping.
