With respect to such statistical data, graphs and tables supplied by us, we advise you that:

•

some industry data included in this discussion is based on estimates or subjective judgements in circumstances where data for actual market transactions either does not exist or is not publicly available,

the published information of other maritime data collection experts may differ from this data, and



•

while we have taken reasonable care in the compilation of the industry statistical data, graphs and tables and believe them to be correct, data compilation is subject to limited audit and validation procedures.



•

CRS, its agents, officers and employees cannot accept liability for any loss suffered in consequence of reliance on such information or in any other manner, and

the provision of such data, graphs and tables does not obviate the need to make appropriate further enquiries
