Among those who stand to benefit from higher rates in the short term are Maersk Line, Hapag-Lloyd and CMA CGM,” Maria Maslovsky, a VP-Senior Analyst at Moody’s, said.
Rates increased by 42% per forty-foot equivalent unit (FFE) on the Shanghai-Los Angeles route, 19% on the Shanghai-New York route and by 39% on the Shanghai-Rotterdam route following the Hanjin’s receivership filing, according to Drewry. The increases follow consistent declines in freight rates in 2016.
