The Association is delighted to welcome its first Korean ship manager, NDSM; adding to the increasing popularity of InterManager throughout North Asia.
Established in 2005, NDSM prides itself on providing a multi-purpose maritime business in the 21st Century with services including: ship and crew management, safety support and insurance management. Today it operates a fleet of 25 vessels around the world.
Dispatches spoke to NDSM’s Chief Executive, Sung Young who shed some light on the Korean ship management sector: “The global financial crisis 10 years ago hit Korea’s shipping industry hard with many ship management companies going into receivership or administration. NDSM was lucky in comparison, only loosing nine vessels. The times of one management company per ship was over, it was time to reshape the way Korea saw itself on the international maritime stage.
“The country is still getting to grips with restructuring its maritime industry, but there is a growing trend towards a more collaborative approach, similar to what we are seeing internationally. One of the reasons NDSM has joined InterManager is so we can be at the forefront of the international ship management industry, taking industry thought leadership and applying it to our operations in Korea and throughout our network. I thoroughly look forward to getting involved with InterManager, its members and the projects we hear so much about.”
