Three things to take away
What is the outlook for Denmark and Sweden’s marine sector – and how is the geopolitical and economic landscape impacting growth
What are the major risk areas for marine firms in the Nordics in 2024
What can Scandinavian marine firms do to mitigate risk, meet policy regulations and promote growth
The marine sectors in Denmark and Sweden are critical to their respective economies and in the key future concern for shipping globally: decarbonisation. Several companies in the region continue to focus on innovation and partnerships around development of new fuels and new ‘green’ routes linking specific ports.
The marine sectors also face other common industry challenges including labour shortages, which have had a negative impact on port and marine sector operational efficiency. Identifying solutions to improve workforce recruitment and retention rates will occupy sector minds in the coming years.
A shift in the security environment in the Baltic Sea impacts both Sweden and Denmark as littoral states. Increased security concerns have led to shows of force through naval exercises, and critical infrastructure remains vulnerable.
