Braemar plc

Founded in London in 1971, Braemar has developed from a shipbroker focused on vessel sale and purchase and tanker chartering into a global maritime services group. Its head office remains in London, with operations covering major shipping hubs worldwide.

Braemar advises clients across shipping and energy markets through chartering, sale and purchase, securities, corporate finance and research. Its chartering coverage includes tankers, dry cargo, offshore energy, LNG, LPG and petrochemicals, and containers.

The firm's main strength is an integrated, specialist offering across the maritime value chain: broking physical shipping transactions, providing market and risk insight, and advising on investment and corporate finance. Its trainee broker programme offers entry routes into shipping and commodities broking.
