The International Handbook of Shipping Finance is a one-stop
resource, offering comprehensive reference to theory and practice
in the area of shipping finance. In the multibillion dollar
international shipping industry, it is important to understand the
various issues involved in the finance of the sector. This involves
the identification and evaluation of the alternative sources of
capital available for financing the ships, including the appraisal
and budgeting of shipping investment projects; legal and insurance
aspects of ship finance; the financial analysis and modelling of
investment projects; mergers and acquisitions; and the commercial
and market risk management issues involved. Edited by two leading
academics in this area, and with contributions from 25 prominent
market practitioners and academics over 16 chapters, this Handbook
covers shipping finance and banking, maritime financial management
and investments. As such, it includes: shipping markets; asset
backed finance; shipbuilding finance; debt finance; public and
private equity and debt markets; structured finance; legal aspects
and key clauses of ship mortgages; marine insurance; mechanisms for
handling defaulted loans; investment appraisal and capital
budgeting; financial analysis and investment modelling; business
risk management and freight derivatives; and mergers and
acquisitions. Thus, the Handbook offers a rigorous understanding of
the different aspects of modern shipping finance and maritime
financial management and investments, the various characteristics
of the available products, the capital needs and requirements, and
a clear view on the different financial management strategies
through a series of practical examples and applications. Technical
where appropriate, but grounded in market reality, this is a
"must-have" reference for anyone involved in shipping finance, from
bank practitioners and commodity trading houses, to shipbrokers,
lawyers and insurance houses as well as to university students
studying shipping finance. Table of Contents Preface by Editors
