Show Notes

In Part 1 of this episode host Mike King and his various guests discuss the latest news including the latest on ocean and air rates, what next for MSC and Maersk, why the legal fallout from cyber-attacks is increasing, and where and why container lines are cutting capacity.

In Part 2, Mike speaks to two thought leaders whose business is understanding the link between more severe weather patterns and logistics risks. They explain how much more volatile storms are already adding to the cost of trade and the price of new port infrastructure.
