On 24 October, at a meeting in Shanghai, BIMCO started work to develop a new standard term sheet for ship sale and leaseback transactions.
As a result of a rising number of shipments of industrial raw materials such as bauxite, coal and iron ore being transported under COAs, BIMCO is working on a new standard form of contract of affreightment (COA).
An outbreak of a virulent disease such as the Novel Coronavirus can have potentially significant implications for ship owners and operators.
The LINERTIME is a deep sea time charter party. Originally published in 1968 and revised in 1974 and 2015. The 2015 revision was a technical update where the latest editions of BIMCO’s core clauses replaced the earlier versions of the same. The latest edition of this contract is LINERTIME 2015. Copyright in LINERTIME 2015 is held by BIMCO.
Sale and leaseback transactions have seen a substantial increase in recent years as an alternative method of ship financing, and BIMCO has adopted a new term sheet which will facilitate the negotiation of sale and leaseback deals and make the process cheaper for parties involved.
2015 never really took off, even though the global economic activity looked stronger earlier in the year. The negative indicators seen at the end of 2014 were not overcome, and we saw a significantly lower level of growth for global GDP in 2015 than in the previous five years. This was primarily due to the struggling emerging markets and developing economies, led by changes in China’s economic focus.
