MOL Looks to Seize Opportunities as Trade Routes Shift Due to Tariffs
Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL), Japan's second-largest shipping company, aims to capitalize on opportunities that emerge from a shift in trade routes driven by new U.S. tariffs, CEO Takeshi Hashimoto said.The highest U.S. tariffs in more than a hundred years came into force on Wednesday, roiling global markets."Trade routes will inevitably be reshuffled," Hashimoto told Reuters in an interview on Tuesday."We'll likely see increased trade from low-tariff countries and declines from high-tariff ones," he said, noting some cargos could be rerouted through Mexico or Canada, where tariffs may be lower.MOL plans to monitor shifting trade patterns and seize new opportunities, he said.Hashimoto said U.S.

USTR Backs Out of Some Proposed Fees on Chinese Ships
U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer told lawmakers on Tuesday that not all of the agency's proposed multimillion-dollar fees for Chinese-built ships to dock at U.S. ports will be implemented, and they may not be cumulative.Greer told a Senate Finance Committee hearing that the proposals were made to address a lack of shipbuilding in the United States.He said the port fees were "proposed actions or series of potential revenue" that could be used to incentivize shipbuilding in the United States following a USTR probe into China's growing dominance on the seas."They're not all going to be implemented. They're not all going to be stacked," Greer said.
