Aseconomies have become more related between each other, any time a crisis appears, shippingindustry is being affected in many ways. In this research we present the risks shippingindustry faces. How the costs for a ship-owner and a charterer can raise the potential risk theirrevenues face. We present a shipping portfolio and how it could be hedged using FFA and oilderivatives.
