Container Shipping faces period of uncertainty with loss of EU antitrust protection

With our comprehensive portfolio of international container shipping services, Davies Turner suspects that shipping companies are now watching carefully to see if the Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) in Washington DC will follow the lead taken by the European Commission when it comes to container shipping and antitrust rules.

Yesterday’s announcement from Brussels not to extend the European Union’s legal framework which exempts liner shipping consortia from EU antitrust rules has sent shockwaves throughout global supply chains and there is a great article about the issue on the Splash247 website, which can be seen here: https://splash247.com/liners-wait-anxiously-on-washingtons-reaction-as-eu-drops-antitrust-exemption/
