Maersk Battling Through the Squall in 2023

Michael Field

A.P. Moller-Maersk is a Denmark-listed transport-based company. Over the last decade, the company has made material changes to its structure and focus, divesting assets in peripheral areas such as supermarkets, banks, and oil and gas. The business is now slimmed down to four divisions, Ocean, Logistics, Terminals, and Towage. The company has been aggressively expanding its logistics business in an effort to diversify away from the asset-heavy Ocean business, taking advantage of the ready-made customer base that comes with the Ocean business.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Maersk Line remains one of the most profitable ocean carriers. Recent M&A activity in the sector, combined with alliances across the carriers, should improve rationality in the segment.

Bears

Falling consumer demand combined with falling freight rates could create the perfect storm over the next few years.
