We were delighted to invite you to Maritime Insights, WFW’s first quarterly breakfast seminar for 2025.
Specially tailored for maritime professionals, Dubai’s Maritime team hosted a series of presentations focussing on hot topics and trends affecting the Middle East Maritime market throughout the year.
Session 1 – Sanctions and Ship Finance
Presenter: Charlotte Knight, Senior Associate
Charlotte specialises in maritime assets and structured finance, as well as commercial shipping transactions, bringing a wealth of experience and insight to the session.
Charlotte dived into the complex area of sanctions and how they may affect the Middle East maritime market and ship financings looking ahead in 2025.
Session 2 – Recovery Claims in the United Arab Emirates
Presenter: Natalie Jensen, Partner
As part of the Maritime and Dispute Resolution groups, Natalie has extensive United Kingdom and United Arab Emirates expertise in disputes in the shipping, international trade and energy sectors.
