.ture of the next five years. The shipbuilding lustry, is, however, dogged by the overcapacity d a seeming inability of governments to accept the jnomic realities of the marketplace; instead, subsi- sation is still rife. The most recent OECD accord on the removal of vernment subsidies requires an end to direct assis- nce by 1996, but it remains to be seen how effective is will prove. Competition for most yards in the ture will be fierce, with newbuilding revenue tend- g to be thinly spread. Most shipbuilders unable to rely any longer upon iptive markets, as previously existed at corpora- on, national or regional levels, must compete in the obal marketplace. The shipbuilder who is alert to le state of the world economy and the shipping larkets, and able to offer a better deal to prospective astomers will fare best. Over the next few years there will be important hanges in the product mix of shipyards and in larket share. Newbuilding prices will be affected by lemand and supply side factors, subsidization, legis- ation, inflation and exchange rates, with improve- nents in technological, managerial and marketing )rices playing an important part at the design stage is well as during building.
