The European Community Shipowners’ Associations (ECSA) have endorsed the European Commission’s new Competitiveness Compass, viewing it as a fundamental initiative for enhancing competitiveness and fostering open trade.
The EU’s Competitiveness Compass, launched in January 2025, addresses productivity concerns and aims to maintain Europe’s leadership in sustainable innovation and climate neutrality.
Built on innovation, decarbonisation, and security pillars, it focuses on regulatory simplification, single market benefits, investment, skills, and policy coordination.
