Entrevista de Pablo Wende a Marcelo Elizondo, especialista en comercio exterior y presidente del Comité Argentino en la International Chamber of Commerce.
MONDAY February 17 kicks off the first of a crucial series of climate talks at the International Maritime Organization. There are just two intersessional working group meetings, and one Marine Environment Protection Committee left to approve regulations to bring shipping to net zero by or around 2050. Hundreds of negotiators will be working day and night to agree on some combination of a carbon price tool and a greenhouse gas fuel standard. The rules have to close the price gap between fossil and green fuels, kickstart investment in renewable supply chains, and also help poorer countries and low-lying islands cope with the costs of climate change. This has been talked about this for many years now, but 2025 is different. The IMO's 2023 GHG Strategy requires it to approve its mid-term measures in April and adopt them in October, to then come into force by 2027. So, what can we expect? ISW-GHG is not open to the press, but it's where much of the real political horse-trading takes place. The IMO's 176 member states are split roughly between those in favour of a carbon levy per tonne of CO2 equivalent, combined with a green fuel standard, and those who only want a fuel standard alone. Declan Bush takes you behind the doors of the IMO ahead of an important week for the shipping industry. Joining Declan on this week's episode are: Guy Platten, secretary general, International Chamber of Shipping Jesse Fahnestock, decarbonisation director, Global Maritime Forum

"The Anatomy of Corruption in Mexico" In this fascinating episode of Lurking in the Mist, we are joined by Estefanía Medina, an accomplished attorney, co-founder of Tohil, and vice-president of the Anti-Corruption Commission of the International Chamber of Commerce of Mexico. With more than 12 years of experience, Estefania recounts her work investigating criminal networks within the government itself. She recounts startling cases in which federal prosecutors and law enforcement officials were involved in bribery, drug trafficking and human trafficking. One shocking case involves a public official who extorted money to return seized drugs, while another uncovers human trafficking crimes perpetrated by agents of an anti-human trafficking unit. Her commitment to justice inspired her to co-found Tohil, a non-profit organization dedicated to strategic anti-corruption litigation. The episode concludes with insights into the intricacies of combating systemic corruption, from verifying the authenticity of documents to identifying the subtle cues that unravel complex criminal schemes.

Reporter Akshat Rathi sits down with ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods, who made his second-ever appearance at the United Nations climate conference. Woods made the case for why incoming US president Donald Trump shouldn't exit the Paris Agreement, and should uphold the country's monumental climate legislation passed under the Biden administration. It's quite the tone shift for a company that has a well-documented history of sowing doubt about the dangers of global warming.

Shipping has ambitious targets to decarbonise but it will only be able to reach those goals with the help of those who operate the vessels – seafarers.When it comes to decarbonisation in shipping much of the talk is around new technology, engines and the availability of alternative fuels. But for these alternative fuelled vessels to work there is a very vital piece of the puzzle – trained crews to operate them. The key role of the seafarer in shipping's decarbonisation voyage led to the formation of the Maritime Just Transition Task Force.In this latest In Focus episode of the Seatrade Maritime Podcast you will be hearing more about the Maritime Just Transition Task Force from two of its members. Joining us today on the Seatrade Maritime Podcast are Kulsoom Jafri, Lead Campaigner, Seafarers and Inland Navigation International Transport Workers' Federation and Arvind Natrajan, Senior Manager, Marine Department, International Chamber of Shipping.In a conversation between Kulsoom, Arvind, and Marcus Hand Editor of the Seatrade Maritime News you will hear about:What is the Just TransitionThe formation of the Maritime Just Transition Task ForceThe scale of decarbonisation and training needs that have to be tackledKey areas addressed by the taskforce and achievements to dateNext steps and future goalsListen to the full episode nowIf you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe to ensure you don't miss our latest uploads.

This episode of the Lloyd's List podcast was brought to you by Lloyd's Register - visit www.lr.org/en/ for more information. Should you wish to list all of the various risks, road blocks, unresolved problems and known challenges ahead for the shipping industry you will need a long piece of paper and ideally some medical assistance on standby. This is not a task for the faint of heart or those of a nervous disposition. You might start with some of the old favourites - supply chain instability, barriers to trade and administrative burdens on an industry ill-equipped to deal with them are all still bubbling away raising the sector's blood pressure. Cyber risk, protectionism, the rise of the dark fleet, seafarer training and recruitment, autonomy…. the list just goes on and on. But, given the geopolitical upheaval that now threatens to blow up, on a daily basis, the risk hotlist is looking spicier than usual this year. How do we deal with this growing ‘to do' list from hell? How is it possible for such a fragmented industry do tackle decarbonisation and digitalisation amid a fracturing geopolitical framework, on top of the business-as-usual risk list that threatens to scupper the best laid plans of those who carry global trade on a daily basis? Shipping's post-Covid, post-Ever Given public profile has never been greater, but more importantly, the industry's political capital is at an all-time high. This week, Lloyd's List editor-in-chief Richard Meade talks to the European Community Shipowners' Association, the Singapore Shipowners' Association and international Chamber of Shipping about what's on their agenda and where they see the greatest challenges, and solutions for shipping. Joining Richard are: Guy Platten, secretary general, International Chamber of Shipping Caroline Yang, president, Singapore Shipowners' Association Sotiris Raptis, secretary general, European Community Shipowners' Association

“You have to be a cold bitch or an easy lay”. Those words of advice were given nearly 50 years ago by the boss of a London-based shipping company to a young woman starting out her maritime career. That young woman went on to become one of the three founders of Women's International Shipping and Trading Association, known as Wista. The story was recounted at a Wista event in London back in 2019 to celebrate the progress made across the industry in diversity and inclusion. Since then, May 18 has been assigned as the International Day for Women in Maritime by the International Maritime Organisation. Women represent a large pool of talent that's been overlooked, according to Karine Langlois from the IMO. “Even just with my own observation, being at IMO for well over a decade now, the parity in the delegations that come to the IMO meetings have far more women in them,” she said. “We used sometimes to see and even for more technical meetings, we used to see men-only delegations, and now you see sometimes even entire delegations represented by women, so that is definitely a positive change even for us here at the IMO.” Anna Robinson, partner at London law firm Watson Farley & Williams said women are well represented in maritime law, and diversity differs when comparing offshore and onshore roles. “When you look at the targets, which the International Chamber of Shipping advocates, they're very conservative, which I think highlights the scale of the problem,” she said. “In three years, they're looking at 12%, in 20 years, we're still only looking at 25% (of the workforce). “I think it's right that they are realistic targets. And I think it's right to recognise there is no silver bullet. This is a long term issue. But the important point is that it needs to stay on the agenda for change. It can't just be a fashionable topic, across three or five years, we've got to keep the conversation going, which is why it's brilliant that we're having this discussion today.”

The World Bank and International Monetary Fund are trying to evolve and prove they are fit for purpose, but the jury is out on just how far that evolution process has gone. While numerous announcements were made at the World Bank-IMF Spring Meetings last week in Washington D.C., the pace of reform is too slow, according to several experts. “The rhetoric in terms of the important pronouncements that have been made are saying the right things, but they're not giving you the next three things that could get done in the next month, in the next three months, in the next six months, in the next 12 months,” Afsaneh Beschloss, founder and CEO of investment firm RockCreek, told Devex. “And so what I would urge the shareholders to do is really get serious, put pressure on the World Bank to start getting things done, not to look at the negativity, but look at the need,” she said, adding that “so much can get done today as we speak.” This gap between rhetoric and reality, between policy making at 10,000 feet and the impact on the real ground-level economy, was evident in the meetings, experts tell Devex in this podcast episode. "The world is in a very, very difficult place. There is progress, but not enough. Reforms need to broaden and deepen to address the grave situation," Rachel Kyte, professor of practice in climate policy at the University of Oxford, told Devex. We also speak with John Denton, the secretary general of the International Chamber of Commerce.Want to understand what played out at the meetings and what's next?

Join Tom Dunlap as he explores the significant Supreme Court case, Smith v. Spizzirri, which examines a crucial legal question: the diverging approaches of circuit courts toward the dismissal or stay of lawsuits during arbitration. This case stands at the crossroads of alternative dispute resolution (ADR), challenging current arbitration practices and potentially reshaping the future of business litigation in the U.S. Dunlap breaks down the concept of arbitration, its role in resolving disputes outside traditional courtrooms, and its benefits for privacy, efficiency, and control over the legal process. With a spotlight on key arbitration institutions such as the American Arbitration Association (AAA), Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (JAMS), International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), and London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), this episode is a deep dive into the implications of arbitration clauses in contracts and the impact of the upcoming Supreme Court decision on businesses, legal practitioners, and the broader system of dispute resolution. Whether you're a legal professional, involved in business, or simply interested in the dynamics of arbitration, this episode offers valuable insights into a critical legal development.

New border controls are being phased in - these are the checks on imports introduced post Brexit, which have been delayed five times. There have been warnings that the extra costs imposed will be passed onto consumers and could add hundreds of millions of pounds to the nation's food bill. All this week we will be looking at trade: from these new rules to trade deals and their impact on British farmers. Today we speak to the International Chamber of Commerce There are growing calls for the government to support fishermen affected by the sudden ban on catching pollock. The zero quota came into force at the beginning of the year after concerns over fish stocks, but rod and line fishermen in Torquay say the decision could put them out of business.More farmland in England has been sold to investors and lifestyle buyers than farmers for the first time - figures for last year from the agents Strutt and Parker show that less than half of buyers last year were farmers - that's in comparison with 50 to 60 % in previous years. Private investors were involved in 28% of transactions; institutional investors in 13% a rise of 10% on 2022; and lifestyle buyers in 16%.Presenter = Charlotte Smith Producer = Rebecca Rooney

It seems we find ourselves in an era of “cascading crises”. The de-risked, de-coupled, low growth, fractious trading environment that the industry is navigating today is laden with uncertainty. China's growth engine is sputtering. The consequences of sanctions and regional bloc economics is creating a bi-polar political and trading environment and inflation is starting to bite. And then there's the existing twin track revolution of decarbonisation and digitalisation to deal with. For those of you returning to the Lloyd's List Podcast after our short summer hiatus – don't worry – we haven't run out of topics to talk about. This week the great and the good of the shipping industry are descending on Lloyd's List's doorstep for London International Shipping Week and, not wishing to disappoint our guests we're going to be running a daily podcast for the duration of the discussions. We are starting a week of LISW podcasts with a whistlestop tour of the issues keeping industry executives awake at night. Today's edition features: • Nikolaus H. Schües, BIMCO President and CEO and owner of Reederei F. Laeisz • Sarah Treseder, UK Chamber of Shipping. Chief Executive • Guy Platten, secretary general, International Chamber of Shipping • Michael Parker, Chairman, Global Shipping, Logistics & Offshore at Citi and one of the architects of the Poseidon Principles

Global grain prices have had a challenging day after Russian attacks on a Ukrainian port on the Danube river reportedly damaged tens of thousands of tonnes of supplies. Roger speaks to Marcelo Elizondo, Chairman of the International Chamber of Commerce in Argentina to discuss whether smaller exporters like Brazil and Argentina could step up to fill the gap. Plus how is Canada reacting after Facebook and Google blocked their Canadian news feeds; government plans to tackle immigration in Chile and the US-American plan to build a new International Space Station.
We now know what shipping needs to do by 2050. We have a pretty good idea of what 2040 and even 2030 looks like on paper. But after the big political showdown in the IMO earlier this month we're now looking at the difficult detail of what follows. This is something of a recurring theme for the Lloyd's List podcast, so as regular listeners will well understand we're not talking about a shipping issue here – we're talking about a global energy transition. Working out where shipping fits into that is not just a case of setting targets and sending demand signal and creating policy. It requires a more holistic approach that considers the entire energy value chain. It's about scaling up low carbon fuel production, but that doesn't work if you can't integrate the ports, the logics and of course the shipping and get both public and private sector by in. Which is why energy ministers converged on the India beach resort of Goa this week to discuss how they can scale up low carbon fuel production. Amongst them sheltering from the monsoon rain was a crack squadron of shipping industry leaders helping to ensure that the maritime element was not just in the mix, but in many ways leading the conversation. Joining the podcast this week to report live from within the Clean Energy Ministerial meeting this week we have: • Patrick Verhoeven, Managing Director, The International Association of Ports and Harbors • Prof. Lynn Loo, CEO, Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation • Bud Darr, Executive VP Maritime Policy and Government Affairs, MSC Group • Stuart Neil, Director of strategy and communications, International Chamber of Shipping
