Shareholder approval to change Diana Containerships’ trading name to Performance Shipping on 19 February was followed the very next day by a change in its protection and indemnity insurance provider.
Nasdaq-listed Performance, as the Greek shipowner is now known, has always been with UK-based Standard Club for its fleet of four containerships between 3,700 teu and 6,500 teu.
However, chief strategy officer Ioannis Zafirakis confirmed to TradeWinds that the ships had been moved to Britannia P&I at the 20 February renewal but did not offer a reason for the change.
