The International Transport Forum at the OECD is an intergovernmental organisation with 52 member countries. It acts as a strategic think tank for transport policy and organizes an annual summit of ministers. Our work is underpinned by economic research, statistics collection and policy analysis, often undertaken in collaboration with many of the world's leading research figures in academia, business and government. This series of Discussion Papers is intended to disseminate the International Transport Forum’s research findings rapidly among specialists in the field concerned.

Security and Risk-Based Models in Shipping and Ports
Review and Critical Analysis
The primary aim of maritime security assessment models is to assess the level of security
within and across the maritime network. When managing risk through legislation,
regulatory assessment models are used to assess risk levels and examine the impact of
policy options, usually in terms of the costs and benefits of a regulatory proposal. This
paper reviews the development, application and adequacy of existing risk assessment and
management models to maritime and port security. In particular, we examine the
problematical issues of security perception, value and impact, and discuss the limitations
of the current regulatory framework in providing an integrated and effective approach to
risk assessment and management, including for supply chain security.
