Independent Ethical ESG Ship Vetting Seafarer Welfare is a major human rights topic, and Ship Breaking is a major humans rights, safety and environmental topic in the global supply chain. Most of the goods we consume around the world are delivered by ships to our shores. Yet ESG and Sustainability Risk Management hasn’t traditionally addressed these problems. Global Risk Management’s independent ESG Ship Vetting services are a global first, designed to help Importers, Exporters and Financial Institutions understand and manage their ESG risks. Seafarer Welfare - Contract Review We help our clients review their contracts to ensure their shipping provider complies with minimum standards and they have the ability to audit their activities in a meaningful manner to ensure their entire supply chain meets ESG and Sustainability expectations. - Service Provider Due Diligence During the procurement process we help our clients conduct due diligence on potential service providers, we look at their policies, and practice and provide our clients with a understanding of the ESG risks associated with different shipping services. - Ship Vetting and Inspections Our clients benefit from our independent risk based vessel inspections to confirm their shipping provider is meeting minimum standards and meeting our clients ESG / Sustainability expectations. Shipbreaking - Service Provider Due Diligence We help our clients understand the business practices of their current or potential shipping service providers with respect to their past shipbreaking practices. We help our clients understand the answers they receive from shipping service providers. We help our clients understand how the use of one ship shell companies and cash buyers enable the ship owner to declare to clients they “do not break their ships on the beaches of southeast Asia”. When in fact they know that their ships will and do end up on those beaches.
