The shipping industry, and in particular the dry bulk sector, is notorious for its volatility. To mitigate the inherent risks, freight forward agreements (FFAs) were introduced in 1992. To eliminate the credit risk associated with these forward contracts, clearing services were introduced in the early 2000s. Following the shipping crisis of 2008, FFA clearing became tremendously popular, with clearing rates of almost 99 percent in the years 2009 and later. In light of these developments, this thesis sets out to analyze two questions: How did the introduction of FFAs affect freight rate volatility? And, how did the onset of FFAs affect freight rate volatility? An exponential GARCH (EGARCH) model was used in conjunction with a dummy variable to investigate both research questions. A panel data analysis was employed to verify the results. The analysis reveals two central findings. First, the introduction of FFAs resulted in a reduced volatility of freight rates in the dry bulk market. Second, the onset of FFA clearing caused an increase in freight rate volatility. These findings reflect structural changes in terms of market efficiency and information transmission.

Participants in the maritime industry place much interest in the Forward Freight Agreements (FFA/FFAs), being an indispensable tool for hedging shipping freight risk. Our paper innovates by directly comparing the FFA predictions with their actual future settlement prices as well as by examining contracts going forward as far as next calendar year. We combine straightforward comparison measurements with cointegration analysis to test for the accuracy and efficiency of the FFA projections. We find that FFAs display limited usefulness in predicting future freights, only slightly superior than simple naïve models. The shorter the contract period and the smaller the vessel the better the forecast. We also find FFAs being relatively good predictors of future market direction but missing the turning points of the market cycles.

This book models price behaviour and forecasts prices in the dry bulk shipping market, a major component of the world shipping industry. Recent uncertainties in the world economy, shipbuilding developments and fleet changes mean the dry bulk shipping market has become extremely volatile, highly speculative and more sensitive to external shocks. In response to these challenging circumstances, this book models price behaviour and forecasts prices in various markets including the freight market, the new build ship market and the second-hand ship market. The authors have carried out an extensive investigation of dry bulk shipping over a 60-year period in diverse sub-markets, trading routes, market conditions and dry bulk vessels. The authors also propose a framework for analysing and modelling the economic processes of numerous variables in the dry bulk shipping market, making use of modern econometric techniques and other economic approaches. This will be especially useful for the control and assessment of risk for ship owners and charterers in ship operation, ship chartering and ship trading activities. This book will be extremely useful for shipbuilders, owners and charterers, as well as shipping analysts and policymakers. It will also be of great interest to academics and researchers concerned with the economics of the shipping industry.

The purpose of the paper is to investigate the impact of the introduction of Forward Freight Agreement (FFA) trading on spot market price volatility in panamax 1, 1A, 2, and 2A trading routes of the dry-bulk shipping industry. The main concern about the impact of derivatives trading emanates from the results of studies that have found that the activities of speculators may destabilise (or stabilise) prices in the spot market. The proposed methodology is considering the link between volatility and information, and of possible asymmetric effects in the conditional volatilities. A GJR-GARCH (Glosten, et al., 1993) process is found to be the most appropriate specification. The results suggest that the onset of FFA trading has had (a) a stabilising impact on the spot price volatility in all investigated routes, (b) an impact on the asymmetry of volatility in routes 2 and 2A, and (c) substantially improved the quality and speed of information flow in routes 1, 1A and 2. However, after including in the conditional variance equation other explanatory variables that may affect spot volatility, the results indicate that only in voyage routes 1 and 2 the reduction in volatility may be a direct consequence of FFA trading. The results suggest that the introduction of FFA trading has not had a detrimental effect on the spot market. It appears that there has been an improvement in the way that information is transmitted into spot prices following the onset of FFA trading.
