Hong Kong Port- Cargo Forecasts and Master Planning

GD Economics staff helped prepare container cargo forecasts and master plans for one of the world’s busiest container ports. The work was key to guiding policy development, triggering investment in future terminals and related transport infrastructure. At the heart of the approach is a rigorous analysis of key market trends and competitiveness drivers underpinned by extensive consultation with senior members of all the key industry groups – shipping lines, terminal operators, midstream operators, shippers and consignees.
