In the multibillion dollar international shipping industry, it is important to understand the various issues involved in the finance of the sector. This involves the identification and evaluation of the alternative sources of capital available for financing the ships, including the appraisal and budgeting of shipping investment projects; legal and insurance aspects of ship finance; the financial analysis and modelling of investment projects; mergers and acquisitions; and the commercial and market risk management issues involved.\u003c\/p\u003e Edited by two leading academics in this area, and with contributions from 25 prominent market practitioners and academics over 16 chapters, this Handbook covers shipping finance and banking, maritime financial management and investments. As such, it includes: shipping markets; asset backed finance; shipbuilding finance; debt finance; public and private equity and debt markets; structured finance; legal aspects and key clauses of ship mortgages; marine insurance; mechanisms for handling defaulted loans; investment appraisal and capital budgeting; financial analysis and investment modelling; business risk management and freight derivatives; and mergers and acquisitions. Thus, the Handbook offers a rigorous understanding of the different aspects of modern shipping finance and maritime financial management and investments, the various characteristics of the available products, the capital needs and requirements, and a clear view on the different financial management strategies through a series of practical examples and applications. Technical where appropriate, but grounded in market reality, this is a “must-have” reference for anyone involved in shipping finance, from bank practitioners and commodity trading houses, toshipbrokers, lawyers and insurance houses as well as to university students studying shipping finance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreface by Editors\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eManolis Kavussanos, Professor, Director, MSc in International Shipping, Finance and Management, Athens University of Economics and Business, Greece\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIlias Visvikis, Professor, Director Executive Education and Professional Development, World Maritime University, Sweden\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 1: Shipping Markets and their Economic Drivers\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJan-Henrik Huebner, Head of Shipping Advisory, DNV GL, Germany\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 2: Asset Risk Assessment, Analysis and Forecasting in Asset Backed Finance\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHenriette Brent Petersen, Head of Shipping \u0026amp; Offshore Research, DVB Bank SE, The Netherlands\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 3: Overview of Ship Finance \u003c\/b\u003e      \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFotis Giannakoulis, Research Vice President, Morgan Stanley, USA \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 4: Shipbuilding Finance  \u003c\/b\u003e      \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCharles Cushing, C.R.
