Our Approach to Governance
At Asia Pacific Shipping, responsible governance is closely connected to the way we manage our vessels, people and business activities.
We focus on clear responsibilities, disciplined management, regulatory compliance and continuous improvement across our shore-based and vessel operations. Our governance approach supports sound decision-making, operational discipline and long-term value creation as ASP continues to develop its fleet and international business.
Responsible Business & Business Ethics
ASP conducts its business responsibly, with a focus on integrity, professionalism, accountability and compliance. We build long-term relationships with our customers, charterers, ship managers, shipyards, financial institutions and maritime partners based on trust, transparency and mutual respect.
We conduct our business in accordance with applicable laws, regulations and contractual requirements, while promoting responsible decision-making and professional standards across our organisation and fleet.
Integrity and professionalism guide the way we work and build relationships. We seek to maintain transparent, respectful and responsible business practices with our employees, customers and partners.
Whistleblowing & Reporting
ASP encourages employees and relevant stakeholders to raise concerns regarding serious misconduct, unsafe practices, compliance matters or other issues that may affect our people, vessels or business. Concerns should be raised through the appropriate internal reporting channels so that they can be reviewed and addressed responsibly and confidentially.
Policies & Guidelines
ASP’s policies and management guidelines provide a framework for safe, responsible and consistent operations across our organisation and fleet. They support regulatory compliance, operational discipline, environmental responsibility, risk management and continuous improvement, helping us maintain high standards of safety, quality and operational reliability.
Management Framework & Cyber Security
Management Systems: Our management systems are certified to ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015, operate in compliance with OCIMF TMSA requirements, and are supported by ASP’s own ISM Document of Compliance. These frameworks support regulatory compliance, operational discipline and continuous improvement across our fleet.
Cyber Security & Data Protection: We maintain appropriate controls and practices to support the security and resilience of our information, digital systems and operational data, helping protect our business and vessel operations in an increasingly connected maritime environment.
