How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| BDTI | A threat to pursue vessels across the region raises expected voyage risk and war-risk insurance premiums. | Up1-5d | The IRGC said action against vessels using unauthorized routes would no longer be limited to the Strait of Hormuz. |
| NG1! | Threatened restrictions on shipping raise the risk premium for Gulf gas and LNG-related supply chains. | Up1-5d | The IRGC warning covered commercial vessels and followed the reported strike on an LPG carrier in Hormuz. |
| SCFI | Commercial operators may divert or slow voyages, increasing regional freight costs and congestion. | Up1-4w | The IRGC threatened vessels and companies using routes it deemed unauthorized, while reported Hormuz traffic remained substantially below pre-conflict levels. |
