In her latest article, Gisele Widdershoven unpacks the newest Poseidon Principles Disclosure Report, showing a near 8% improvement in climate alignment across ship finance portfolios — even as IMO targets tighten.
The message is clear: ➡️ Climate alignment is no longer an abstract ESG metric. ➡️ It is shaping credit decisions, pricing, and access to capital.
But the article also asks the harder question many avoid: can finance alone deliver decarbonisation without fuels, infrastructure, and geopolitical realism? As Gisele argues, “fuel-ready” ships are not the same as fuel-available shipping.
