THE STUDY ON THE COMPILATION OF THE CHINA CONTAINER FREIGHT INDEX. COMMENT
Although there exists many kinds of shipping freight indexes, the compilation of a container freight index is still not shown. As such, this paper has systematically studied the compilation of the China container freight index, which includes selection of calculation formula, determination of freight type, the choice of samples of shipping lines, and rules of revision of the index, and formed a complete system of methodology. The major part of this model has already been accepted by the Shanghai Shipping Exchange and applied in practice after some modifications.
