Classification societies add value to the maritime industry more effectively because they serve the shipping industry as an internal regulatory system.

“The purpose of a Classification Society is to provide classification and statutory services and assistance to the maritime industry and regulatory bodies as regards maritime safety and pollution prevention, based on the accumulation of maritime knowledge and technology.”*
