MeDirect Malta sponsored a recent discussion, organised by The Malta Chamber, on decarbonising the marine sector. The event, which was also supported by the Embassy of France in Malta, was an opportunity for Maltese and French business leaders to discuss the sustainability challenges facing the marine sector given its reliance on fossil fuels, technological limitations, and complex regulatory frameworks.

Cressida Galea, Head – Regulatory Affairs & Sustainability at MeDirect Malta, said, “The marine sector has always been an important pillar of the Maltese economy, making its transition to a more sustainable footing a focus for everyone. The transformation of any industry needs international cooperation and the support of all stakeholders, including banks who are central to enabling investment in new technologies. As a bank that is committed to sustainability and the long-term success of the Maltese economy, MeDirect will continue to support key industries and facilitate the necessary discussions and actions.”
