Climate Regulation and ESG Disclosure in Maritime Transport
European Financial Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether climate policy signals influence ESG disclosure quality in maritime transport, a capital‐intensive industry responsible for roughly 3% of global CO₂ emissions. Using panel data from 126 listed shipping firms between 2009 and 2023, we construct an author‐based disclosure quality index and treat the IMO's 2018 ...

Optimal Hedging Strategies in the Low‐Sulphur Bunker Fuel Landscape
European Financial Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The IMO2020 regulation for the green transition in shipping turned the industry into using two compliant bunker fuels: very low‐sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO) and low‐sulphur marine gas oil (LSMGO). VLSFO futures contracts introduced in late 2019 and other energy‐related futures contracts indicate that the VLSFO contracts trading on the Singapore ...
