North has merged with Standard Club to form NorthStandard.
Find out more about NorthStandard here or continue on this site to access information and resources.

Our purpose today remains as it was on our inception in 1860; to enable our Members to trade with confidence. In the 21st Century, that confidence includes addressing sustainability risks head on.

We are delighted to present our second annual Impact Report. In last year’s report we introduced our 2030 Sustainability Strategy, designed to guide our priorities in the decade to come.

We have recognised that the need to deliver upon our Strategy is more pressing than ever, with rising global temperatures, the war in Ukraine, supply chain issues and the Covid 19 pandemic all testing the resilience of the shipping industry.

We recognise the importance of a focus on sustainability to:

  • protect the longevity of North, maritime industries and our planet;
  • meet the needs of our Members, clients and other stakeholders;
  • highlight and build on the positive impacts that North is having and to reduce our negative impacts.

Our core work is inherently supportive of a sustainability agenda – preventing and responding to maritime incidents, managing pollution, damage, and loss of life. Indeed, our success in preventing incidents, raising standards, and effectively dealing with claims when they arise has always been at the heart of our work.

We also understand the critical importance of working with our communities and meeting the environmental and societal challenges that we collectively face in the 21st century, such as climate change, health and wellbeing and diversity and inclusion.

But we also understand that we can and must do more.

Following approval of the merger between North and the Standard Club, with the combined NorthStandard launching in February 2023, we will be empowered to improve our impacts and have a greater influence. The sustainability of International Group P&I Clubs, and the maritime sector more generally, is threatened by the global challenges that we are seeking to address. The combination of the two clubs will provide a platform to accelerate our progress and to have industry leading impacts.
