Shipping
We are experts in ship financing
We accompany the maritime industry with knowledge and passion
Global shipping is booming and is a key element in world trade, which would not be possible without the transportation of goods across the world’s oceans and other waterways. But ship financing remains a challenging business because it is cyclical. Together with you as a shipowner, we want to explore business and financing opportunities in the shipping market and support you to the best of our ability. In doing so, we keep a firm eye on your risks and ours at all times—that is one of our central claims.
With our long-standing presence in Hamburg and Athens, we are a strong partner throughout the maritime sector. We think entrepreneurially and accompany you through all phases of financing. Personal contact and your individual advice are particularly important to us.
