Norway has firmly cemented itself as the leader in publicly listed shipping companies after a string of successes in recent months.
Oivind Amundsen, chief executive of the Oslo Stock Exchange (Oslo Bors), said the country offers unmatched infrastructure for raising capital amid a market uptick in new listing sectors such as container ships and car carriers.
The bourse, part of the Euronext group, now hosts about 40 maritime companies that boast a combined market cap of close to €20bn ($22bn).
