Shipping and bunker markets are struggling with unparalleled turmoil that is leaving a trail of destruction around the world. Bankruptcies and payment defaults are now far too common and innocent players are facing financial ruin. Now, more than ever, is the time to reevaluate your customer base and to protect your business by learning to recognise and minimise the risks. Expert knowledge can help you to reduce your exposure to credit risk in the maritime sector, and this specialist seminar will give you the knowledge, tools and expert contacts to do it. This one-day seminar will dig deep into the complexities of the volatile shipping and bunker markets and will give you the vital information you need to manage your company's vulnerability to credit issues. Over the past five years, the shipping sector has experienced both unprecedented returns and unprecedented collapse! Substantial profits were made against a background of buoyant freight rates and strong demand - fuelled in particular by China and India - but then the bubble burst. At the same time, bunker prices went through the roof, crashed, then rose again, and the number of casualties continues to rise. So where does that leave your business? Now is the time to ensure that your company is properly armed to respond quickly to changing, and potentially ruinous market conditions. Understand your customers and suppliers, and the markets they are operating in. Know what to do in the event of trouble and prepare yourself in case the worst happens. This is a seminar that you can not afford to miss!

Feedback from previous Managing Credit Risk Seminars "Twelve months ago I was involved with the Managing Credit Risk course in Miami when realisation of the impending ‘Perfect Storm’ began to form in the minds of those attending. To be back on a course in June this year when the market dynamics have changed so radically has been a great eye-opener. This course is essential for those looking at ways of mitigating credit risk at a time when their customers are under severe downward economic pressure yet experiencing rising fuel costs." Chemoil Energy Limited "Thanks for inviting me to participate in what was undoubtedly the most important shipping/maritime event I attended this year. The timing could not have been better. Going into the uncertainties our industry is facing, this course should be a regular on the circuit and a must for all serious responsible operators in the sector." ExxonMobil "Very impressive class... good presenters... definitely worth the trip." US Bank Voyager
