Financing, funding, and investment continue to be sticking points in the road to decarbonisation for the shipping sector. Despite increasing focus towards unlocking the barriers to investment for zero emissions projects, such as the formation of the Poseidon Principles and various studies and reports outlining cost projections, the path to funding the industry’s decarbonisation remains foggy.

Today’s podcast guest, Dr Pablo Rodas-Martini, President of the Gliese Foundation, takes an analytical view of current endeavours to establish a financial pathway towards decarbonisation. He takes us through the Gliese Foundation’s scoring of the first Poseidon Principles Annual Disclosure report, as well as his personal views on the shipping industry’s ability to meet the IMO’s ambitious targets, based on a long and illustrious career in the sector.
