Deregulation is not a matter or problem to be resolved simply by revising a law or a system in a short period of time. Rather, it should be implemented at a steady pace on the basis of a full understanding of the relationships between government regulation and the government's role, taking into account the inherent functions of the market. Moreover, arguments about government regulation and its deregulation vary according to viewpoints and approaches on the part of parties concerned. This makes it more difficult to form a consensus or reach a conclusion in recognizing and resolving the basis of problems at issue. This paper aims to review the shipping industry deregulation of major countries, to analyze Korea's situation and problems of shipping regulation, and to suggest it's improving methods. Although government regulation is a sensitive policy issue, this paper remains relatively at the basic research. Regulation problems should be tackled by interdisciplinary approach. A specific approach in regulation study could not explain exactly the causes and results of government policy

Historically shipping conference has enjoyed antitrust immunity in consideration of the importance of liner service in international trade in that it is essential to ensure stable movement of international freight. However, shipping deregulation which has been carried out for last decades in the US and EU has caused significant changes to the liner shipping market. In fact, most of shipping conferences have broken up or transformed as discussion agreement since shipping regulatory reform. However, on the other hands, it is also true that it has contributed to developmore efficient and responsive negotiating process that are better tailored to the needs of individual shippers.

This study reviews maritime transport policy regarding liner conference and the changes in the liner market over the decades. Liner shipping industry has long been protected from competition by block exemption. To prevent excessive competition in punctual operation and its inelastic market structure, liner shipping companies formed conferences that are protected to fix the prices under the law. In the US, deregulation in transport sector began from 80's and continuing with OSRA 1998, conferences were dissolving. On the other hand, the EU with close conference system, Regulation 4056/86 contained block exemption remained in force for unlimited time without review clause. However, in Oct 2008, the EU has announced its removal, and conferences were no longer permitted to fix the price nor exchange information. Although OSRA 1998 has already broken up conferences by allowing individual service contracts, but the repeal of the immunity for price fixing will alter significantly the rule on cooperation in the industry since it is a unilateral move by the EU, especially in transatlantic lane. There are rapid changes in shipping market getting much more complicated, and with removal of 4056/86 allowing the market to be more competitive, opening up the industry with far more diverse strategic options. Hence this paper reviews on liner shipping industry and its changes of policies over the years from protected market to open competition market of today.

본 연구는 새만금신항만을 건설함에 있어 국제적인 선사, 화주 및 포워더 유치를 위해 항만경쟁력 중 어떠한 국제경쟁력을 확보해야 새만금신항만의 활성화에 기여할 것인지 그 요인을 선정하는 것을 연구의 목적으로 하였다. 본 연구의 방법으로 요인분석 및 계층분석적 의사결정방법론(AHP)을 사용하였다. 선행연구를 통하여 짧은 입출입 항로, 주요 인프라 개발추진, 세제감면 및 규제완화를 비롯한 총 11가지의 측정변수를 선정하였고, 요인분석을 통해 '입지 및 시설', '주변 인프라 및 친수성', '지역 정책 및 환경'의 총 3가지의 상위평가 요인들을 그룹핑 하였다. 본 연구에서는 측정변수들의 신뢰성 검증을 요약 분석한 결과 총 11개의 측정변수의 Cronbach alpha 계수가 0.8 이상으로 나타나 신뢰성이 있다고 판단할 수 있다. 또한 일관성 검증 및 상위평가기준 중요도 분석과 측정변수별 중요도 분석을 실시하여 측정변수들의 우선순위를 산정한 결과 '주요 인프라 개발추진'이 가장 우선시 되는 측정변수로 선정되었으며 그 뒤를 이어 '중국 경제특구와의 인접성', '넓은 항만 배후부지', '공항과의 인접성', '국유지로 인한 국책사업의 가능성' 순으로 나타났다. 새만금신항만의 경쟁력 제고를 위한 활성화 방안으로는 새만금신항만을 환황해권 물류중심 허브항으로 건설하고 환경변화에 따른 대형선사를 유치해야 한다. 또한 새만금신항만의 시사점으로서 새만금신항만을 중량물 전용부두로 건설할 것을 제안해 보았다. 본 연구는 향후 개장 될 새만금신항의 국제경쟁력 요인 선정에 있어 중요한 지표로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.
