This advanced practical textbook deals with the issue of risk
analysis, measurement and management in the shipping industry. It
identifies and analyses the sources of risk in the shipping
business and explores in detail the "traditional" and "modern"
strategies for risk management at both the investment and
operational levels of the business. The special features and
characteristics of all available freight derivative products are
compared and contrasted between them. Practical applications of
derivatives are showcased through realistic practical examples,
while a number of concepts across the contents of this book appear
for the first time in the literature. The book also serves as "the
reference" point for researchers in the area, helping them to
enhance their knowledge of risk management and derivatives in the
shipping industry, but also to students at both undergraduate and
postgraduate levels. Finally, it provides a comprehensive manual
for practitioners wishing to engage in the financial risk
management of maritime business. This second edition has been fully
updated in order to incorporate the numerous developments in the
industry since its first edition in 2006. New chapters have been
introduced on topics such as Market Risk Measurement, Credit Risk
and Credit Derivatives, and Statistical Methods to Quantify Risk.
Furthermore, the second edition of this book builds upon the
successful first edition which has been extensively (i) taught in a
number of Universities around the world and (ii) used by
professionals in the industry. Shipowners, professionals in the
shipping industry, risk management officers, credit officers,
traders, investors, students and researchers will find the book
indispensable in order to understand how risk management and
hedging tools can make the difference for companies to remain
competitive and stay ahead of the rest.
