We spoke with J Mintzmyer about the shipping sector in June, when sentiment was at a low. There's been quite a turn since then, and after another Marine Money event we speak with him about what's changed and where investors' focus is. ESG (Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance) investing was a major topic, but as a positive driver for the sector in the way that IMO 2020 has been, rather than as a problem. You can read J's full write-up of the conference here.
