This study aims to analyze the market structure of the coastal shipping industry in Japan. Based on 153 observations using balanced panel data for the period 2000–2016, we estimate the market-wide cost function and total factor productivity (TFP) growth rate, and then provide some policy...

Short sea shipping (SSS) is the maritime transport of goods over relatively short distances, as opposed to the intercontinental cross-ocean deep sea shipping. The goal of the current paper is to identify SSS growth potential and the univariate regression analysis indicates that the following...
