JOIN our live and interactive HFW and Maritime London webinar to learn more about the new law and importantly what Reasonable Procedures steps shipping businesses may wish to consider to ensure that they may benefit from the defence.

On October 26 2023 Parliament passed the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 which included a new offence of “Failure to Prevent Fraud” and importantly which is subject to a defence of putting in place Reasonable Procedures.  The new law follows a similar formula to similar failure to prevent offences for bribery and tax evasion.

Under the new offence, which has extraterritorial effect an organisation wherever incorporated and meeting two out of three of the following thresholds:

1) more than 250 employees and/or
2) more than £36 million turnover and/or
3) more than £18 million in total assets

will be liable where a specified fraud offence subject to UK jurisdiction (many of these can have fairly broad jurisdictional scope) is committed by an associate, e.g. an employee or agent etc. for the organisation’s benefit, and the organisation did not have reasonable fraud prevention procedures in place. It does not need to be demonstrated that company management ordered or knew about the fraud.

Norton Rose Fulbright and Maritime London joined forces to organise the ‘Ship recycling – has the industry met its own perfect storm?’ event held as part of the London International Shipping Week 2023.

With the Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships entering into force in two years’ time, will this bring a change for the industry and make recycling of ships easier, or will it change little in practical terms? With the influx of newbuild box ships soon to enter the market and IMO decarbonisation regulations making older ships difficult to trade, BIMCO estimates 15,000 ships will need recycling in the next ten years.

Against an uncertain macroeconomic backdrop, the demand for sustainable recycling of vessels, and a complex and fragmented regulatory framework, make compliance and the physical scrapping of deep-sea tonnage challenging.

Join Jos Standerwick, Chief Executive, Maritime London, as he moderates a panel discussion exploring how the sector will respond to the current market conditions, what shipowners should be considering when thinking of the life cycle of the asset, the role that ship recycling plays in the industry’s wider ESG obligations and what other market participants need to consider. He will be joined by Philip Roche (London) and Michael Jurgen Werner (Brussels) of Norton Rose Fulbright, and Dr Anil Sharma, Founder & CEO, GMS to cover all angles of this interesting topic.

Join us on March 8th 17:30-19:00 for the “Russian Sanctions, Price Cap and the Maritime Industry” panel discussion, a co-hosted by Maritime London and Watson Farley & Williams event, which will be held at WFW London office in 15 Appold Street, EC2A 2HB. If you would like to attend please use this link to register.

The panel will discuss some of the challenges and risks that have been posed to the maritime industry in attempting to comply with the regime.

On 5 December 2022, the long-awaited Russian oil price cap measures and related sanctions came into effect. It is no surprise that these measures are heavily focused on the maritime industry. Policymakers have long recognised the central role of shipping in international trade, and therefore used sanctions affecting shipping (through insurance, financing, etc.) when they wished to limit, or sanction, trade. However, none of this is likely to lessen some of the challenges posed by the regime, and it seems clear that regulators, market participants and their advisers have already been grappling with some of the issues.

17:30 – Registration
18:00 – Panel discussion
19:00 – Drinks reception

Introduction presented by:
Simon Kavanagh, Partner & Mary Mackintosh, General Counsel, Watson Farley & Williams

Panel will include:

• Stephen Fewster, Global Head, Shipping Finance, ING Bank

Norton Rose Fulbright is delighted to invite you to the launch of ‘UK Domestic Shipping: Mobilising Investment in Net Zero’, a report produced by Marine Capital Ltd with the support of the UMAS and Lloyd’s Register, to be held on Wednesday, January 11, 2023 at 17:30 at the offices of Norton Rose Fulbright

Billed as one of the most comprehensive studies of the UK domestic maritime sector to date, the report states that approximately £75bn of investment is required over the coming three decades for the UK’s domestic maritime sector to transition to net zero. Attracting new sources of capital will be key to the industry’s energy transition.

Join us for the launch to hear from Tony Foster of Marine Capital as he presents the findings of the study, an assessment of the appropriate measures and structures that could be applied to our national maritime sector and the lessons that can be learnt from comparative regimes, including initiatives such as Green Corridors.

With the report already attracting considerable press activity and discussion, we anticipate this to be a lively and interesting session.

16:00 Arrivals & Refreshments
16:15 Seminar starts
17:45 Seminar ends. Drinks will be served in the Mall Room.

Title: What does an increasingly polarised world mean for shipping?

Focus: Shipping is a uniquely international and pragmatic industry. However, as the far-reaching sanctions against Russia have demonstrated, shipping is not immune from the geopolitical uncertainty. As the international landscape becomes more fractious, how will shipping interests adapt? And what effect this will have on shipping clusters? This seminar will explore the current geopolitical risk environment and the potential shipping clusters can work more closely to develop shared understanding.

In-person attendance is for dinner guests only, with limited capacity of 60 maximum, so places will be allocated on the first-come-first-served basis.

The seminar will be broadcast via Zoom to NYMAR members in the US and also Maritime London members not attending the dinner. Register using this link .

With the transition to net zero, electric vehicles are set to become the dominant form of transport globally. But in comparison to other forms of transport, what are the issues faced for the increased use and carriage of lithium-ion batteries? And what are the impacts when these batteries fail, particularly when transported by sea. This discussion will highlight the practical and legal implications.

• Lithium-Ion batteries, their construction and what causes their failure that could result in Thermal Runaway.
• What is thermal runaway and what gases are being produced when this occurs.
• Do ship’s crews have the necessary means to deal with a thermal runaway incident if it occurs on board?
• Can crews follow normal firefighting procedures in Ro-Pax, PCTC and HSC types of vessels and other considerations such as means of escape and LSA?
• Whether EVs are “dangerous goods”
• What carriers/ shipowners must do to make the ship seaworthy
• Whether the presence of EVs in itself renders the ship unseaworthy for other cargo

The shipping industry is enjoying a few days in the sun, but could soon be facing a perfect storm.
