Top 25 (2016) Container Liner Operators
Dynamar is pleased to present the 14th edition of its popular
Top 25 (2016) Container Liner Operators
Corporate and Trading Profiles
With the absorptions of APL into CMA CGM and China Shipping into Coscon since the 2015 edition, Arkas and Simatech come in as new members of the list. There are more changes to come with UASC most likely to be merged into Hapag-Lloyd, the conclusion of Hanjin’s bankruptcy protection process and Maersk taking over Hamburg Sud.
The background behind this period of rapid change is simple: money. Dynamar’s latest Top 25 study offers the most comprehensive overview of the financial results of the largest operators. For the first time, as a group, they posted a combined net loss in 2015, this running into hundreds of millions of dollars. Even worse will come: for the first nine months of 2016, the combined net result (of those available) has dropped by more than USD 13 billion!
The context to all these developments can be found in the profiles of the Top 25 carriers and their affiliates. When the current and future Alliances are added there are around 60 individual profiles in total. As well as covering the news and developments Dynamar delves into the characteristics, characters, history, personalities and strategies behind these, the world’s leading operators. The profiles are supported by an introduction summarising the Top 25 side-by-side, an overview of the East-West Alliances and more than 200 figures or tables.
