应对颠覆:全球贸易动荡中的海运货物风险策略演变 

(Credit: Canva)  红海是全球商业的重要动脉,由于也门胡塞叛军不断升级的袭击,红海已成为热点地区。自2023年末以来,这些袭击不仅扰乱了国际航运,还加剧了整个中东地区的地缘政治紧张局势。  海运货物影响:延误、改道和成本上升  红海是连接亚洲、中东和欧洲的主要贸易路线。根据DHL旗下公司 Hillebrand Gori 报道指出,这条航线在全球供应枢纽之间的货物运输中发挥着关键作用。然而,由于目前主要集装箱航线都避开红海,许多航运公司已将船只改道绕过好望角(Cape of Good Hope),导致运输时间延长、燃料成本上升以及物流瓶颈。  仅在2024年的前两个月,通过苏伊士运河(Suez Canal)的贸易下降了50%,凸显了破坏的规模。  海运货物运营的战略风险缓解  对此,达信亚洲(Marsh Asia)制定了风险缓解策略,帮助企业重新掌控货物运输及相关责任。这些策略包括与货运代理重新协商条款、重新评估分包商协议,以及多元化供应链以减少对高风险航运的依赖。  一位来自石化行业的风险经理分享了她所在公司应对此风险的策略。得益于美国国际集团(AIG)提供的有效战争险(active war risk coverage),他们目前正密切关注红海局势的演变。她指出,尽管现有保险仍然生效,但若安全形势进一步恶化,保险公司有权终止承保。  在了解相关情况后,她的物流团队正逐一评估各项运输安排,并根据运营的紧急程度与可承受的风险阈值,决定是继续穿越红海,还是选择绕道行驶。  她概述了货物风险管理的三项关键策略:  通过保险与供应链战略实现复原力  (Credit: PARIMA)  在泛亚风险与保险管理协会(PARIMA)于2025年7月2日举办的网络研讨会“热点与后果:中东紧张局势升级下的海上安全”( Flashpoints and Fallout: Maritime Security Amid Rising Middle East Tensions )中,达信亚洲区海运、货运及物流负责人Michael Walls指出,在当前形势下,保护货物安全与强化供应链能力,是应对关税压力与地缘政治风险的关键所在。应对策略包括:确保合适的保险保障、实现供应商多元化、开拓受关税影响较小的新兴市场,以及重新评估装卸与仓储运营,以提升整体韧性。  危机仍在蔓延  尽管在海军护航下,红海部分航运活动已逐步恢复,但整体的安全与贸易环境依旧充满不确定性。对于海运货物相关方而言,制胜之道在于保持敏捷 — 以稳健的保险保障、灵活的物流策略,以及牢固的合作关系为基础,应对不断动荡的航运格局。  危机仍在持续蔓延,但只要具备前瞻性的眼光与坚韧的韧性,即便在全球最汹涌的海域,企业也能保持货物流动和供应链的畅通无阻。
