‘When you come to something like the Strait of Hormuz or some other major geopolitical event, you’re not going to put that into an AI tool and ask: “What do we do?”. You’re going to pick up the phone to people who’ve done it before and whose judgement you trust.”

As managing partner Jeremy Shebson emphasises, the firm’s experience across its core sectors – shipping, energy, aerospace, insurance, commodities and construction – mean it is perfectly placed to guide clients through times of instability.
