Navigating volatility with Veson
When aligned with the principles above, each disruption you face becomes not just a risk, but also an opportunity. Let’s look at some real-world scenarios and how Veson’s decision infrastructure for maritime trade empowers maritime organizations to transform them into a unique decision advantage.
The challenge
A new emissions policy reshapes voyage economics.
An emerging regional emissions regulation introduces a new carbon cost mid-year, requiring charterers and operators to recalculate breakevens and compare cost-adjusted routes and vessels.
How Veson helps:
Veson integrates decarbonization data directly into voyage planning workflows so teams can:
- Evaluate carbon-adjusted profitability
- Compare vessel and route options based on emissions exposure
- Model and account for cost impacts of regulations like EU ETS and FuelEU
The challenge
Sudden port disruption threatens voyage margins mid-fixture.
A port strike, storm, or unexpected cost occurs, creating margin risk and operational uncertainty.
How Veson helps:
Veson provides the real-time insight needed to remain ahead of operational risk, with tools that allow you to:
- Monitor congestion in real time
- Dynamically recalculate voyage metrics
- Automate tasks and notify team members rapidly
The challenge
High claims volume strains team capacity.
A spike in laytime claims coincides with reduced staff availability, slowing resolution and risking financial loss.
How Veson helps:
Claims CoCaptain streamlines and automates the claims process, so teams can:
- Automatically confirm timelines and generate claims documentation
- Increase financial visibility to negotiate and resolve claims efficiently
- Validate SOFs with integrated AIS data
The challenge
Fragmented market signals delay a key chartering decision.
Brokers and internal systems surface conflicting specifications and options, making it difficult to confidently act on cargo opportunities.
How Veson helps:
Veson brings new clarity to chartering teams, allowing them to:
- Integrate internal and market data to rapidly surface the best opportunities
- Validate voyage inputs quickly and confidently
- Collaborate seamlessly and in context to act more decisively
The challenge
Revenue recognition rules shift due to tax or legal changes.
A new cross-border tax regime or JV structure requires accounting and finance to adapt fast—without disrupting voyage execution.
How Veson helps:
Veson empowers teams to comply confidently, with built-in tools to:
- Support intercompany revenue sharing
- Enable voyage mirroring across entities
- Ensure continuity of commercial workflows for smooth revenue recognition
