Ship Finance – A Gamble?

Banks and Financial Institutions have recently been in the limelight with numerous shipping loans having turned sour. Rock bottom freight rates have caused ship owners to default on their loan commitments.

Periodic monitoring of the investment, and better understanding of a vessel’s operations can avoid part of the problem. Risky charters, cost cutting, safety compromises etc. all contribute to poor earnings, but the warning signs need be spotted, before matters come to a head.

Shiptech has for several years assisted in Pre-Finance inspections and would suggest that the inspection process is continued even after the loan is executed. Our competent team of professionals is available for assisting in various ways to protect the bank’s investment. Condition monitoring can be tailored to suit specific requirements.

Reactive steps have proven to be far more costly than consistent proactive measures.

The Art of Inspections

The Shiptech team has perfected inspections to a finely tuned mechanism. Inspections for us are not a sideline activity, but rather a principal activity.

Over the years our clients have come to depend on our reports to make critical decisions, in Ship finance, Purchase and maintenance. We have thus evolved to a superior level.

Inspections are not inspector dependent, but are a result of a system created by us in our pursuit for perfection.

We carefully listen to our clients and refine our methods to suit their needs. Every report is a result of careful analysis, in process monitoring and in keeping with our policy of continuous improvement. The client can be in direct contact with the inspection team, so concerns and updates are exchanged, resulting in us meeting the client’s expectations every time.

Each inspector is armed with all the high tech tools needed to make the inspection quick and efficient, without being overly dependent on the facilities provided by the entity being inspected. On completion of an inspection, quality meetings are held with staff independent of the specific inspection and methods to enhance the quality are discussed and implemented.

Traditional inspection methods are a thing of the past. Our methods are information based, client driven, adding value to our business partners and giving them the competitive advantage.
