Three things to take away
What is the outlook for the UK’s marine sector – and how is the geopolitical and economic landscape impacting growth
What are the major risk areas for marine firms in 2024
What can marine firms do to mitigate risk, meet policy regulations and promote growth
The marine sector remains critical for UK companies including those that rely on ships to import and export goods, or to transport passengers. The effects of both Brexit and the conflict in Ukraine continue to impact maritime transport and those operators reliant upon it, notably through supply chain disruption, sanctions compliance, and customs requirements.
Labour issues and regulatory pressures will place additional pressure on maritime routes and supply chains, while the environmental impact of the marine sector will increasingly become a focus point for tightening regulation, requiring a balance between sustainable goals and commercial realities.
