The systemic and economic challenges facing shipping in its various articulations, from ships to ports, constitute a potentially explosive mixture for the economic equilibrium of individual companies and for industry. Shipping operators complain about the new direct rules aimed at the sustainability of the sector, without perceiving that they are fundamental to protect it from disruptive, non-industry influenced, supranational policies. Much more difficult to incorporate into the strategies of companies and the industry is the development, sometimes not very transparent, of rules intended to constrain financial investments under certain conditions, which go under the acronym ESG. In Italian ports, the recent Reform does not seem to have led to changes to the substance of the regulatory cage, so as to call for a reform of the reform (which is not fully applied) extended to the laws and regulations relating to the life of ports. The very few Port Authorities that have managed to develop their own structures have done so under a different or simplified ad-hoc regime of regulations for this second part of the cage, a solution that encounters deep-
rooted resistance. Given the looming of a possible "European" reform.
