Overview
Professor Costas Th Grammenos, Lloyd's Register Foundation (LRF) Chair in Shipping, Trade and Finance, is Chairman of the Costas Grammenos Centre for Shipping, Trade and Finance, Bayes Business School (formerly Cass), City, University of London.
He joined City, University of London in 1982 as Visiting Professor and became Professor of Shipping, Trade and Finance in 1986. He was Pro Vice-Chancellor, City, University of London from 1998 to 2011, Acting Dean, Bayes Business School in 2000; Deputy Dean, Bayes Business School in 2001; and Deputy Dean (Undergraduate School) City, University of London from 2002 to 2010. He was the creator and Founding Director of the Bayes Business School Centre for Shipping, Trade and Finance in 1983 and became its Chairman in 2012. The Centre was renamed by City, University of London, the Costas Grammenos Centre for Shipping, Trade and Finance in April 2007.
He was responsible for the inception, creation and design of the world class MSc Shipping, Trade and Finance, founded in 1984, and its Director until 2003. The Centre introduced the MSc Trade, Transport and Finance in September 1997 (from 2008 to 2012 known as MSc Supply Chain, Trade and Finance); and the MSc Energy, Trade and Finance in 2003. More than 4,300 students, from over 150 countries, have graduated until 2020, many of them holding leading positions in international banking and finance, shipping, energy, trading and manufacturing sectors. In addition, the Centre has gained international recognition for its applied research in the areas of shipping finance, shipping and financial risk management, commodity trade, energy and finance, and is a major platform for international dialogue between senior business executives, government and academia.
Within this framework, the Centre organises on a regular basis the City of London Biennial Meetings (1999-date); the Athens Triennial Meetings (2004-date); and the Onassis Prizes, internationally very significant awards for leading academics in Shipping, in International Trade, and in Finance (2008-date).
Further events are taking place around the world on an ad hoc basis.
Professor Grammenos was born in 1944 and raised in Athens. He holds a BA in Politics and Economics, Panteion University, Athens (1971), and an MSc in Financial Economics, Bangor, Wales (1977). In 1999, he was awarded the highest academic accolade in the UK, the DSc in Shipping Finance, by City, University of London for creating – through his published research –"Shipping Finance" as a new academic subject, and for his "significant contribution to knowledge in Shipping, Trade and Finance".
He began his career at the National Bank of Greece in 1962 and was financial shipping expert at its head office in Athens from 1973 to 1974. He was Independent Researcher and Advisor from 1977 to 1982. He joined City, University of London in 1982 as Visiting Professor and became Professor of Shipping, Trade and Finance in 1986. He teaches Shipping Investment and Finance since 1982. He introduced, through the MSc, a new approach in international business, "the spherical approach".
He wrote the well-known seminal monograph on shipping finance "Bank Finance for Ship Purchase" (1979), published by the University of Wales Press in the Series of Bangor Occasional Papers in Economics, Number 16. His proposed credit analysis and policy in the monograph was adopted by many international and regional banks. It constituted the first academic study on the subject worldwide.
Overall, he has written papers and studies on Shipping Finance, published in refereed academic journals and specialist trade publications. Since the mid-1980s, through his research, class teaching and public presentations, he has brought to the attention of the shipping world the potential of public and private equity and debt markets as new sources for shipping finance.
He is the Editor of the major academic publication "The Handbook of Maritime Economics and Business" (2002, 20010), LLP, where 50 leading academics from 30 universities in 19 countries contributed 39 chapters. He has presented papers and given lectures in various parts of the world.
He was made OBE (Hon) by HM Queen Elizabeth in 1994 for his work in international shipping and finance; and was appointed CBE (Hon) in 2008 for "services to teaching and research". In 2013, he was appointed "Commander of the Order of the Phoenix" by the Hellenic Republic for his world-leading teaching and research in the maritime industry; in 2017, he became an Honorary Fellow at Bangor University, Wales; and, in 2019, he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate by the University of the Aegean.
He was 1998 Seatrade Personality of the Year presented at the London Guildhall by HRH The Duke of Edinburg; in 2008, he was awarded the prize of Distinguished Personality for his outstanding contribution to the shipping industry by the Association of Banking and Financial Executives of Hellenic Shipping; in 2008, he was awarded the ‘Achievement in Education or Training’ at the Lloyd’s List Greek Shipping Awards; in 2011 he was included in the Lloyd’s List Top 100 Most Influential People in the Shipping Industry; and, in 2017, he was presented with the Capital Link Greek Shipping Leadership Award.
He was the recipient of the "Personality of the year 2018" in the Lloyd's List Global Awards where It was cited "...He is, however, best known as a leading global authority on shipping, trade and finance. Over 40 years he has made a unique contribution to the global shipping industry by sharing his scientific and academic thought leadership. Through educating, mentoring and inspiring multiple generations of shipping executives, Professor Grammenos has arguably shaped the modern shipping industry as we know it". In the same year, he was appointed to the Maritime 2050 expert panel of the Department for Transport to advise the UK government on the country’s maritime strategy.
Since 1994, he is an Archon of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. He is Member of the Board of Directors of the Alexander S. Onassis Public Benefit Foundation (1995-date); Member of the American Bureau of Shipping (1996-date); Fellow of Royal Society of Arts (1996); Non-executive Member of the Board, Marfin Investment Group (MIG) (2007 to 2010); Freeman of the City of London (2000); Liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Shipwrights (2002); Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Bankers (2004).
