The morning after: what December’s IMO vote means for a fixture

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) is set to vote in December on a measure that could shift the financial burden of carbon emissions from shipowners to charterers. This change, if approved, would affect the pricing of dry bulk trips, as explained by Argyris Zafeiropoulos from Resilience & Compliance Advisory. The vote's outcome could impact the financial aspects of seafarers' employment, as it may influence their employers' ability to pass on additional costs.
