An examination of the role and responsibilities of classification societies which should be of interest to those involved in the international shipping and marine insurance industries. Classification societies are now regarded not only as monitors of the fitness and safety of vessels but also as promoters of international maritime regulations concerning safety of life, environment and property. Contributors from the UK, the US, Europe and the Far East representing the viewpoints of the societies, lawyers and underwriters cover such major issues as third party claims made against classification societies, balancing governmental obligations with economic temptations, major and subordinate obligations both implicit and explicit, immunity from liability and the ultimate liability and recent decisions and landmark cases.
