Post the merger of the two locomotive makers the swift union of China CNR and China CSR, the trend of the market is changing and we can see increasing number of mergers in the years to come. These two giants broke their alliance 14 years ago, but now seeing the competitive scenario in the market, they came together to work.

According to Li, “On the merger scale we can position the state-owned shipping lines, China Ocean Shipping Group (Cosco) and China Shipping Group, in the bottom.”

It would generate the fourth-largest container carrier, if we add up the container arms of Cosco and China Shipping, these are the sixth and seventh largest operators by fleet size globally. Economically, it would be fruitful, as per the estimates by Shenwan Hongyuan analyst Xie Ping, which is 800 million yuan (HK$999 million) in extra annual net profits.
