ASCELA Insights - Edition 10 - May 2022

In this issue

Since the beginning of 2020, an unfortunate set of Black swan events like the COVID-19 pandemic, blockage of the Suez Canal, and the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war brought entire businesses and supply chains to a halt or drastically reduced their efficiency. The world is facing container shortages. It can be termed a 'crisis' as the lack of availability of containers had a ripple effect on the entire supply chain, hence disrupting global trade.
This insight paper attempts to understand how container shipping, with its complex and transcontinental nature, was significantly affected. The paper also discusses solutions for factors that had caused an unprecedented shortage of containers and hampered trade's recovery to avoid a similar situation in the future.
