New York City-based global law firm White & Case LLP has released “Restructuring & Beyond: The marine industry’s routes to safety.” The report focuses on survival strategies for those affected by the industry’s downturn as well as emerging opportunities for companies, banks and investors. The report examines strategic and practical measures companies under threat might take to preserve their future, how lenders and investors can support companies by continuing to deploy capital, new opportunities for investors and new sources of capital; the role of banks, private equity and, potentially, the capital markets in maritime financing; which sectors of the maritime industry may represent the best opportunities for recovery and growth, and the impact of U.S. bankruptcy law on the global shipping business. The report can be downloaded at the White & Case website.
