Meet the Panellists of the CSN London Maritime Forum “Shipping: Predicting an Unpredictable Future” – Panel Discussion – “International Rule of Law; Is it a thing of the past?”
The Forum will take place on 13 October 2026 at the Marriott Hotel Regent’s Park Under the theme “Shipping: Predicting an Unpredictable Future”.
The CSN London Maritime Forum is exclusively designed for senior decision makers navigating the complex commercial and geopolitical realities of modern shipping. This highly targeted event is essential for shipowners, shipmanagers, C-suite executives, maritime financiers, marine insurers, legal professionals, and technology innovators. If your role involves making critical strategic, financial, or risk management decisions for the future of your enterprise, this forum will provide the practical insights, candid dialogue, and high level networking you need to stay ahead.
The foundation of global shipping has always been a robust and universally accepted legal framework. However, escalating geopolitical conflicts, unilateral sanctions, and the increasing disruption of vital trade corridors are severely testing the resilience of international maritime law. This premier morning panel addresses a highly pressing question for the boardroom today, asking whether the established rule of law is deteriorating in the face of modern global volatility.
Guided by an exceptional lineup of industry leaders from the IMO, the International Chamber of Shipping, and the commercial sector, the discussion will bypass theoretical legal debate to focus entirely on hard commercial and operational realities. The panel will explore how shipowners, operators, and insurers can navigate a fragmented regulatory landscape, manage liability in extreme risk zones, and maintain commercial viability when the traditional rules of engagement can no longer be guaranteed.
