Included in the proposal is also a commitment to the multiple clearing house model.<\/p>\n<p>The likely sale of the 272-year-old Baltic Exchange to the Singapore Exchange has not been without its detractors, chief among them, John Banaszkiewicz, the managing director of Freight Investor Services (FIS), who last month returned as dry chairman of the Forward Freight Agreement Brokers\u2019 Association (FFABA).<\/p>\n<p>Banaszkiewicz told <em>Splash<\/em> yesterday: \u201cThe sale of the Baltic Exchange marks a turning point in the history of the freight market and we hope that it is a change for the better.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLike other contributors and users of Baltic data FIS is concerned that the devil will be in the detail of any potential deal and the risk remains that market participants will be exposed to new conditions that, while manageable for the bigger shareholders, might negatively affect the market as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe look forward to receiving the fuller details and being able to discuss the sale and its implications with The Baltic and the buyer in depth.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Singaporean takeover of the Baltic Exchange is designed to bolster London\u2019s position as an international maritime hub, a spokesperson for the Singapore Exchange has told Splash.
