  • Safety and Shipping Review 2026: Vessel and cargo value in region shows importance of maritime chokepoints. Managing geopolitical disruptions is now a top priority for shipowners and cargo operators.
  • Geopolitical tensions challenge shipping’s ongoing long-term safety improvements. Incidents fell 16% to fewer than 3,000 globally in 2025, while fire remains a major loss driver with over 200 incidents, the second highest total in a decade.
  • More complex and volatile risk landscape enforces need for greater operational resilience versus cost efficiency.
SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 24 June 2026 – Given that 90% of international trade is transported across oceans, maritime safety and stable shipping trading routes are critical. According to Allianz Commercial’s latest Safety and Shipping Review, incidents like the closure and reported mining of the Strait of Hormuz are the latest in a series of recent disruptions to have impacted shipping. They signal a transition toward a “new maritime order” defined by escalating security risks along strategic shipping corridors, the disruption of established trade routes, persistent uncertainty, higher risk premiums, and a greater strategic emphasis on resilience over pure cost efficiency.

In addition to geopolitical uncertainty, traditional risks for the shipping industry remain a major concern, although the numbers of total vessel losses and incidents have continued to decline in recent years. Machinery damage or failure and fires are among the main loss drivers in this regard, leading to significant economic and insured losses.

“Our analysis shows the shipping industry has made significant improvements in maritime safety in recent years. However, it has also undergone a fundamental transformation, from decades of relative stability, defined by steady trade flows and largely predictable operating conditions to becoming increasingly complex and volatile. The Middle East conflict and Strait of Hormuz closure is just the latest in a series of severe interruptions to hit shipowners and cargo operators. Resilience, geopolitics, and efficiency must be balanced in an increasingly unpredictable world, where the cost of uncertainty is reshaping the shipping industry,” explains Thomas Lillelund, CEO of Allianz Commercial.

Geopolitical uncertainty becomes top risk for shipping industry
The conflict in the Middle East paralyzed the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil trade route. Allianz Research data shows that around 1,150 cargo-carrying vessels (over 100GT*) with an estimated vessel and cargo value of approximately $125 billion, a volume of 29 million GT, and as many as 20,000 seafarers are in the Persian Gulf waiting to resume operations following recent diplomatic breakthroughs. This underscores the structural importance of maritime chokepoints and how critical they are for shipping and international trade, while also highlighting the severe disruptions to vessel operations and mental strain that has been placed on those seafarers who have endured months on board facing the threat of attack.

Marine insurance cover has been available throughout the conflict, albeit at increased hull and cargo premiums. However, the real issue for shipowners has been more about the risk to the crew and the vessel when transiting a conflict zone, rather than pure insurance considerations. Even if the US and Iran agreement holds and the Strait of Hormuz is reopened, solid assurances of safe passage will be required, involving the international community, particularly if traffic is to return to its pre-war levels, up to as many as 140 vessels a day.

“We are seeing growing uncertainty around shipping routes. Any type of event – a conflict, pandemic or a grounded vessel blocking a key port or shipping canal – can potentially cause a major disruption to shipping and supply chains. The events in the Middle East have been more impactful than many would have expected. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz sets a dangerous precedent and raises questions around the long-term future of this and other critical chokepoints. What is becoming clear is that we have to pay a price for uncertainty, shifting from ‘just-in-time’ to ‘just-in-case’ supply chains, and prioritizing resilience over cost efficiency,” says Captain Rahul Khanna, Global Head of Marine Risk Consulting at Allianz Commercial.

Total loss and incident numbers decline despite industry headwinds
The review’s latest analysis shows that there have been more than 900 total losses reported over the past decade (vessels over 100GT). Between 2016 and the end of 2020, there were 555, an average of 111 per year. This number declined to 350 between 2021 and the end of 2025, an average of 70 (37% down on the previous five-year period), reflecting the positive effect of an increased focus on safety measures over time – 43 total losses have been reported in 2025, with more than 30 of these vessels over 500GT. The South China, Indochina, Indonesia, and the Philippines region is the main loss hotspot globally over the past year, and the past decade (255). A huge volume of imports and exports flow through the region, resulting in high levels of shipping traffic, which is reflected in the number of incidents.

Around the world, the number of shipping incidents declined over the past year by around 16% (2,818 in 2025 compared to 3,353 in 2024). The East Mediterranean and Black Sea region saw the highest number (622), followed by the British Isles (619), which is also the location of the most incidents over the past decade. Machinery damage or failure was the major cause of shipping incidents globally, accounting for over half (1,505), followed by vessel collision (260). Fires on large vessels, including container ships and car carriers, remain a worry. There were more than 200 incidents on large vessels reported during 2025, down from 2024, but still the second highest total over the past decade, with at least nine total losses reported.

The increasing size of vessels is also driving a trend for a rise in general average claims, where the shipowner and cargo interests share losses or expenditure to save the whole venture in an emergency. Such claims are typically complex and large. Contributions to cover losses can be as high as 50% of the cargo value, which if a vessel is carrying a few thousand electric cars, for example, could easily be over US$100mn.

“Insurance markets react quickly to crises, but the real challenge for companies is understanding how risks are interconnected. That’s why resilience and risk management are becoming just as important as insurance coverage. The shipping industry is facing turbulent times, not only from geopolitical instability, but also from traditional hull and machinery risks, where we see claims costs continue to rise, as well as from decarbonization and fleet renewal challenges. Our role as an insurer is to support our clients as both a risk carrier and a resilience partner to mitigate risks before they become a damaging loss event,” says Justus Heinrich, Global Product Leader Marine Hull at Allianz Commercial.

Geopolitics and high demand drive trend for older vessels
The average age of the global fleet increased to 23 years in 2025, up from around 20 years old just before the Covid-19 pandemic, as shipowners retain vessels for longer due to the volatile geopolitical climate. Conflict in the Middle East has seen tankers and container ships stranded and rerouted around the Cape of Good Hope, for example, resulting in longer transit times and a squeeze on existing fleet capacity.

Older vessels pose significant safety risks at sea, with vessels over 20 years old accounting for over half of all safety incidents, analysis shows. As ships age, the likelihood of incidents increases due to structural, mechanical, and technological obsolescence, creating risks for crew, cargo, and the environment.

“Shipowners are under pressure to scrap older vessels and replace them with new, more efficient, safer and compliant ships. However, the recent pushback against net zero targets and full order books at the major Asian shipyards are other factors which could ensure the average age of vessels is likely to remain elevated in the near term,” says Captain Nitin Chopra, Senior Marine Risk Consultant, Allianz Commercial.

Singapore-based used-car marketplace Carro is considering a confidential filing for an initial public offering in the United States as early as this month, signalling renewed confidence among Southeast Asian technology companies seeking access to deeper global capital markets.

The SoftBank-backed company has been evaluating a US listing that could raise as much as $500 million and value the business at more than $3 billion, though the size, timing and venue of the offering remain subject to market conditions. A confidential filing would allow Carro to begin regulatory engagement without immediately disclosing detailed financial information to the public.

The move would test investor appetite for a profitable, asset-heavy digital commerce platform at a time when equity markets have become more selective about technology listings. Carro’s case is likely to be watched closely because it combines online vehicle transactions, financing, insurance, after-sales services and data-driven pricing across multiple Asia-Pacific markets.

Founded in 2015 by Aaron Tan, Aditya Lesmana and Kelvin Chng, Carro has grown from an online used-car platform into a broader automotive ecosystem. Its operations cover Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Japan, Taiwan and Hong Kong, with Australia also identified as an expansion market. The company uses artificial intelligence and proprietary data tools to inspect, price, finance and sell vehicles, a model designed to reduce friction in a fragmented second-hand car market.

Carro’s financial profile has strengthened ahead of the possible listing. The company posted FY2025 revenue of S$1.2 billion, gross profit of S$149 million and EBITDA of S$43 million, while total assets stood at S$1.3 billion. The results marked its fifth consecutive year of positive EBITDA, offering a contrast with earlier generations of venture-backed marketplaces that pursued scale while absorbing heavy operating losses.

The prospective IPO would come after a series of private funding rounds that brought in heavyweight investors. SoftBank Vision Fund 2 led a US$360 million Series C round in 2021, helping Carro reach unicorn status. Other backers include Temasek, GIC, EDBI, B Capital, Woori Venture Partners and Cool Japan Fund, which led a US$60 million strategic investment last year to support demand for Japanese vehicles across Asia-Pacific.

Carro’s listing plans also reflect a changing market for used cars in Southeast Asia. Rising new-vehicle prices, tighter household budgets, longer replacement cycles and growing acceptance of online purchases have supported demand for certified pre-owned vehicles. Digital platforms are trying to capture this shift by offering inspection guarantees, financing, insurance and warranty products that traditional dealers often provide unevenly.

The company’s expansion into financing is a central part of its investment story. Its fintech arm, Genie Financial Services, has built a loan book while keeping non-performing loans below 0.5 per cent in previously disclosed figures. That lending capability gives Carro an additional revenue stream, but it also exposes the company to credit risk, interest-rate movements and regulatory oversight across several markets.

A US IPO would place Carro in front of investors familiar with listed online auto retailers such as Carvana, whose turnaround has helped restore interest in the sector. Stronger US used-car platform earnings have improved sentiment, but investors remain cautious about businesses that carry inventory, require working capital and depend on financing conditions. Carro would need to show that its marketplace margins, ancillary services and regional scale can offset those pressures.

The offering would also be significant for Southeast Asia’s start-up ecosystem. A successful listing could become one of the largest US debuts by a company from the region since Sea’s 2017 flotation and may encourage other late-stage technology firms to revisit overseas listing plans. Traveloka, Carsome and Xendit have all been viewed as potential public-market candidates, though each faces different timing, valuation and profitability considerations.

For SoftBank, Carro’s progress would add to efforts to demonstrate exits from its later-stage technology portfolio after several years of volatile valuations. Public-market investors have become more disciplined in assessing growth companies, favouring businesses that can show durable margins, strong cash generation and clearer paths to profitability.

Carro’s final decision is not guaranteed. Market volatility, valuation expectations, disclosure requirements and investor demand could alter the timetable or push the company towards another private financing round before any listing. A confidential filing would mark an important step, but the formal IPO process would still depend on roadshow feedback, regulatory review and broader equity-market conditions.

Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and a group of institutional investors have bought a 7.3 per cent stake in Corona Remedies for ₹777 crore, marking a sizeable secondary market transaction in the Ahmedabad-based drugmaker months after its stock market debut.

The shares changed hands through block deals on the National Stock Exchange, with the transaction executed at ₹1,730 a share. The deal involved about 44.9 lakh shares, with private equity investor ChrysCapital, through its affiliate Sepia Investments, and Anchor Partners selling part of their holdings. ADIA bought 39,130 shares, while other buyers included Aberdeen Group, Factory Mutual Insurance Company, HDFC Mutual Fund, Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund, Ashoka WhiteOak and other funds.

Corona Remedies’ shares rose nearly 3 per cent after the transaction, trading around ₹1,840 on the NSE, as the market read the entry of large domestic and overseas institutions as a vote of confidence in the company’s branded formulations business. The block deal valued the stake at a premium to the company’s public issue price band of ₹1,008-₹1,062 a share in December 2025, underlining the strong post-listing performance of the stock.

Sepia Investments sold 43.28 lakh shares, equal to about 7.07 per cent of Corona Remedies’ equity, for around ₹748.9 crore. Anchor Partners offloaded 1.61 lakh shares, or 0.26 per cent, for about ₹28 crore. Sepia’s stake fell to 12.69 per cent from 19.76 per cent after the sale, while the wider ownership base brought more institutional depth to the company’s shareholder register.

The transaction is also a partial exit for early financial investors who backed Corona Remedies before its public listing. For buyers, the attraction lies in a domestic formulations franchise with established brands across women’s healthcare, cardio-diabeto, pain management, urology and other therapeutic categories. The company has positioned itself in segments with higher repeat prescription potential and relatively stronger pricing resilience than low-margin commodity generics.

Corona Remedies reported revenue growth of about 17 per cent in the financial year ended March 2026, while profit after tax rose about 33 per cent. Its full-year revenue crossed ₹1,400 crore, supported by growth in chronic and sub-chronic therapies, brand-led marketing and wider distribution. The company’s earlier public offer was entirely an offer for sale, meaning the proceeds went to existing shareholders rather than to the company.

The drugmaker was ranked among the top 30 pharmaceutical companies in the domestic pharmaceutical market by sales before its listing. Women’s healthcare is one of its strongest verticals, followed by cardio-diabeto, pain management and urology. Its brand portfolio includes products targeted at specialist doctors, a strategy that has helped it command higher prescription visibility in selected therapies.

The stake purchase comes at a time when pharmaceutical companies with strong domestic franchises are drawing investor interest. Companies focused on branded formulations have benefited from rising healthcare consumption, deeper insurance penetration, higher diagnosis rates for chronic conditions and stronger prescription volumes in urban and semi-urban markets. The domestic pharmaceutical market has also been less exposed to some of the pricing and regulatory volatility faced by export-heavy generic drugmakers.

ADIA’s participation fits a broader pattern of Gulf sovereign capital seeking exposure to healthcare, pharmaceuticals, financial services, infrastructure and consumer platforms across growth markets. The Abu Dhabi fund has built a diversified global portfolio and has been active in private equity, listed equities, real estate and alternatives. Its entry into Corona Remedies, though modest in percentage terms, adds to institutional interest in healthcare businesses with predictable cash flows and long-term demand visibility.

For Corona Remedies, the deal improves public float quality and may support market liquidity. Greater institutional ownership can also bring closer scrutiny of margins, product concentration, compliance, capital allocation and future acquisition strategy. The company’s next phase will be measured against its ability to maintain growth while protecting profitability in a market where promotional expenses, field-force productivity and doctor engagement remain critical.

The transaction also highlights how block deals have become an important route for private equity funds to monetise stakes after listings. Rather than waiting for gradual market sales, large shareholders can exit or pare exposure through negotiated exchange transactions that allow institutional buyers to acquire sizeable positions in a single trading window. Such deals can reduce overhang when executed cleanly, though they also put focus on valuation sustainability after the initial market response.

Abu Dhabi Investment Authority has emerged among institutional buyers in a ₹777 crore open-market transaction involving a 7.3 per cent stake in Corona Remedies, marking another Gulf-linked investment in the country’s fast-growing listed pharmaceutical space. The transaction was executed through block deals on the National Stock Exchange at ₹1,730 per share, with shares sold mainly by Sepia Investments, an affiliate of ChrysCapital, and Anchor Partners. ADIA purchased […]
