market intelligence

China is developing its shipping market and CHINAssist has excellent access to stakeholders and decision makers. With this access to policy makers Chinassist has in-depth knowledge of how the Chinese Ship yards operate and how to maximise output. The Global economy has hit the trough of downturn and has started to recover. Evidence from COSCO has suggested that the downturn was in fact part of the cyclical nature of Shipbuilding and shipping industry. However, demand is on the upturn. The fluctuations in the Baltic Dry Index can be seen as normal and the worst case scenario that was provided in the darker days of the first and second quarters of this year was nothing but speculation fuelled by the mass media.

The key to beating the recession is confidence in the US Dollar and the impetus of strategic procurement measures from China to restore the equilibrium by providing companies in the west to grow their capital and stimulate investment and market confidence.
