What Are Key Factors Driving The Demand In The Global Ship Leasing Market?
The growth of the ship leasing market is predicted to be driven by escalating volumes of maritime trade. Maritime trade volumes pertain to the cumulative quantity of merchandise or cargo transferred via sea over a specified duration. This rise in maritime trade volumes stems from increased consumer needs for a variety of products, causing nations to exceed their local production capacity for import and export purposes. Ship leasing aids in facilitating maritime trade volumes by offering flexible access to fleets, thus enabling shipping firms to expand operations without substantial initial investments. It also bolsters global trading efficacy by guaranteeing the availability of ships to respond to demand shifts, bolstering supply chain dependability. For instance, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, a Switzerland-based intergovernmental organization, reported that worldwide maritime trade escalated by 2.4% to 12.3 billion tons in 2023, suggesting a bounce back from the drop in 2022. Furthermore, it is anticipated to surge by 2% in 2024 and sustain an annual average growth of 2.4% up to 2029. Consequently, the burgeoning maritime trade volumes are fuelling the expansion of the ship leasing market.

What Are The Upcoming Trends Of Ship Leasing Market In The Globe?
Leading players in the ship leasing marketplace are concentrating on launching leasing divisions to facilitate structured financing of vessels, capitalising on tax and regulatory advantages, enabling transactions in foreign currencies, and offering flexible fleet capabilities to clients at lesser immediate capital expenses. For example, Reliance Industries Limited, a conglomerate based in India, initiated a ship leasing division in the International Financial Services Centre (IFSC) located in GIFT City, Gujarat in April 2025, to improve its involvement in maritime financing and global trade services. This step includes crucial benefits like a consolidated regulatory structure, appealing tax benefits, incorporating a total 100% tax holiday related to profit for up to 10 years, and relief from numerous charges such as GST and withholding tax on lease payments. This time charter even provides a presumed foreign jurisdiction status, permitting improved access to worldwide markets and overseas currency funding at cut-throat rates. This structure aims to fortify India’s maritime industry by attracting ship leasing operations traditionally situated in overseas centres, thus fuelling growth, investment and worldwide commerce.
