A word from the editor

Dear Reader, Lloyd’s List delivers you business-critical information tailored to your needs.

For more than 275 years, the leaders of the world’s shipping industry have relied on Lloyd’s List to give them an edge. Now we would like to invite you to join them. From our origins as a daily newspaper, Lloyd’s List has evolved into a fully searchable, digital information service for today’s 24/7 shipping industry.

Award winning journalism Lloyd’s List is the recognised journal of record for the maritime industry. Our award winning journalists have long-standing relationships with key industry players, ensuring our research is verified and reliable and we remain the leaders in delivering breaking news.

Continuously innovating Lloyd’s List has plotted the course for the global maritime industry since the days when Edward Lloyd founded a coffee shop and posted vital information of ship arrivals, departures and known casualties for London’s maritime commercial community. Since then Lloyd’s List has been taking advantage of the technological evolution to offer readers the best information and analysis through the most advanced media. From the launch of the daily paper, Lloyd’s List has developed to today’s most trusted maritime website, which offers the reader a wealth of applications and information, such as special microsites, Lloyd’s List Asia and is delivered across multimedia platforms.

Independent We still fiercely guard our editorial independence. We rely on in-person interviews with the people making the news rather than corporate spin or recycled press releases.
