German asset manager MPC Capital believes global crises and the ongoing energy transition give it scope to make more headway in shipping investment.
The group looks likely to forge more deals like this year’s order for four methanol-ready container ships in South Korea worth $260m.
Chief executive Ulf Hollander said: “In all segments, the global goals in connection with the energy turnaround are resulting in an immense need for investment in real assets, which we can also expect to provide a strong tailwind for MPC Capital’s business model.
