Geopolitical hotspots ocean shipping - Feb 2024
The webinar discusses geopolitical hot spots and their impact on supply chains, focusing on ocean shipping and maritime choke points. Three speakers from Onyx, a consulting firm, cover the accumulation of risks in ocean shipping, with emphasis on the Red Sea and the South China Sea. Geopolitical risks in the Middle East and South China Sea are connected to important choke points and lanes in ocean shipping, leading to disruptions and potential impact on global inflation. The presentation also addresses alternative shipping routes and the influence of elections on geopolitical matters, particularly in relation to China's economic leverage over Iran and India's potential impact on the South China Sea conflict.
