Reaching more than 50% of the world's merchant fleet, combined with our global infrastructure gives us a unique opportunity to truly contribute to shaping the maritime industry and enable sustainable global trade through our offerings. This is a responsibility and opportunity we take seriously. We remain committed to the ten principles of the UN Global compact and to actively contributing towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals." - Thomas Wilhelmsen, group CEO
