Forwarders call for rules to prevent carrier dominance of global supply chains
27 Nov, 2022
Global regulation is needed to prevent supply chain domination by container lines, FIATA told the Logistics for Europe Forum in Brussels on Wednesday.
In a panel discussion, that included Henrik March, director of services, DG comp at the EC, and Damian Viccars, Brussels representative of the World Shipping Council (WSC), delegates heard that competition law needed improvements to develop fair regulations.
FIATAs chairman of the sea transport working group, Jens Roemer, asked: "Why is the US FMC changing the Shipping Act if there is no domination in the market?"
