A trend for shipbrokers to offer consulting services on tackling decarbonisation and the green transition is gaining traction in Turkey.
Io’s Shipbrokers has been an early mover in its local Istanbul scene after sensing a gap in the market.
“We consider ourselves to be pioneers in Turkey,” Sude Akansu, market analyst at Io’s, said.
Internal talks to develop Io’s newly branded “Blue Desk” began in 2019, with the department up and running by the end of the following year.
