The Sustainable Shipping Initiative (SSI) today announced that Braemar, the international shipbroking and financial services group, has joined SSI as a member.
Braemar becomes the latest organisation to join SSI’s ‘Commercial Pathways to Transition’ workstream, which brings together leaders across the maritime value chain to advance the commercial and financial levers driving decarbonisation decisions in shipping.
As shipbrokers are central to how shipping deals are structured and how commercial practices evolve across the market, Braemar’s membership brings that market insight directly into SSI’s transition work. It combines commercial intelligence with the practical tools and shared reference points that SSI has developed over 15 years of multi-stakeholder collaboration across the industry.
Braemar operates across sale and purchase, tanker, dry, gas, and offshore markets, serving shipowners, charterers, banks, and investors globally. The company’s Shipping Carbon Intelligence Tool gives owners, charterers, and financiers vessel-level carbon exposure data, helping translate transition commitments into actionable commercial decisions.
Ellie Besley-Gould, Chief Executive, Sustainable Shipping Initiative, said, “Brokers sit at the heart of how shipping deals get done. Braemar joining SSI brings expert market intelligence into our work, and signals that the commercial intermediary community is increasingly ready to move from analysis to action.”
Joey Ng, Global Head of Decarbonisation and Fuel Transition at Braemar, said: “The decision to transition to alternative fuels or not remains a key risk for our clients. The ability to navigate this complex issue is becoming a competitive advantage.”
