How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| BRENT CRUDE | Lower transit volumes and repeated attacks increase the probability of supply interruptions. | Up1-5d | JMIC recorded four attacks in 96 hours and said commercial vessel movements remained substantially below baseline. |
| BDTI | Vessel scarcity, rerouting and elevated war-risk exposure raise tanker freight rates. | Up1-4w | UKMTO-distributed reporting showed depressed commercial traffic and continued attacks, attempted attacks and surveillance. |
| ZIM | Hormuz disruption exposes shipping operators to rerouting, delays and insurance-cost changes, but the company-specific earnings sign is not established by the report. | Watch1-4w | The assessment documented materially reduced commercial traffic through the strait. |
