Podcast Summary
ALTERNATIVE FINANCE & PRIVATE EQUITY
Shipping remains a capital-intensive industry. The changing landscape of finance is enriched with several new platforms which are ready to provide debt financing to the shipping industry.

Furthermore, it is open not just to bigger companies but also to smaller and mid-sized owners, who represent a big portion of the industry.
