Abstract: The economic decoupling between USA and China, the two largest economies of the world, as the result of the deterioration of the two counties’ foreign affairs, is expected to have a short term effect on the seaborne trade. Not only China is the second largest economy but is also a major shipping player, including shipbuilding and ship-financing services. The economic decoupling adds more uncertainty to an already shaken global environment of the last decade, shaped by several disruptions, such as Covid-19 pandemic, BREXIT, the Russo-Ukrainian War, along with the Trump Tariffs in 2018, create uncertainties that affect the shipping industry, representing more than 90% of global trade. This dissertation aims to provide answers by studying the disruption of US and China trade-war on Seaborne Trade. In the following dissertation it is proved that the interaction between the two economies and seaborne trade is decreased after 2018.
