31/07/2024 (Agence Europe) – On Monday 29 July, the European Commission launched a Ship Financing Portal to promote the ecological transition of the maritime sector. This platform, launched by the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Mobility and Transport (DG MOVE), provides companies and organisations with a directory of available financial tools needed to renew and modernise fleets, improve efficiency and reduce environmental impact. The Commission invites all players in the maritime sector, including small and medium-sized enterprises, financial institutions and other organisations, to explore the ship financing portal and take advantage of the various financing opportunities available. This initiative underlines the EU’s determination to promote a sustainable and competitive maritime sector, according to the Commission. For more information: https://aeur.eu/f/d6l (AD)
