However, efficiency gains varied by region and income level.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/1138084\/SP_Market_Intelligence_Logo.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"(PRNewsfoto\/S&amp;P Global Market Intelligence)\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1758593240_51_image.jpg\" title=\"(PRNewsfoto\/S&amp;P Global Market Intelligence)\"\/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p> The report, Container Port Performance Index (CPPI), shows that East Asian ports demonstrated improved performance and led the rankings in 2024. South Asian ports also saw remarkable recovery over the past year, while ports in  North America  and  Europe  showcased resilience by maintaining scores close to 2023. <\/p>\n<p> The annual report, which is in its fifth edition, is jointly produced by the World Bank Group and <a href=\"https:\/\/investingnews.com\/stocks\/spgi\/s-p-global\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">S&amp;P Global <\/a>Market Intelligence and sheds light on emerging trends in port efficiency between 2020 and 2024. <\/p>\n<p> The world&#8217;s largest ports in high-income countries were not the only ones to see improvements. Several developing country ports saw noteworthy improvements to their scores and rankings, between 2020-2024, including  Dakar  (  Senegal  ), Jawarharlal Nehru (  India  ), Mersin (T\u00fcrkiye), Port Said (  Egypt  ), and Posorja (  Ecuador  ). <\/p>\n<p> The report attributes these improvements to strong political commitment, partnerships with global terminal operators, streamlined trade procedures, and, in some cases, targeted investments from financial institutions. <\/p>\n<p>  &#8221;  Even amid the multiple shocks, developing country ports are finding ways to adapt, improve, and maximize value,&#8221; notes  Nicolas Peltier-Thiberge, Global Director for Transport at the World Bank. &#8221;  It&#8217;s a reminder that with better planning, technology, and cooperation across the logistics chain, ports can make significant strides in their efficiency.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p> This edition of the CPPI offers a comprehensive global benchmark of 403 container ports worldwide, utilizing a robust dataset that includes more than 175,000 vessel calls and 247 million container moves. It emphasizes total vessel time in port as a key indicator of operational efficiency, which is crucial for understanding the resilience and reliability of global trade.\u00a0This year&#8217;s CPPI introduces a multi-year trend analysis for the first time, allowing for a deeper understanding of how individual ports have evolved over the past five years. This innovation provides valuable insights into whether ports have improved, declined, or remained stable in their performance metrics. <\/p>\n<p> The report notes that introducing 24\/7 crane operations, optimal crane deployment, and digital platforms that connect with customs and logistics partners can deliver measurable gains in competitiveness and resilience. <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;The CPPI, and its underlying data, serves as a diagnostic tool, enabling stakeholders to pinpoint structural inefficiencies and develop strategies for enhancing port operations,&#8221;  said Turloch Mooney, Global Head of Port Intelligence &amp; Analytics at <a href=\"https:\/\/investingnews.com\/stocks\/spgi\/s-p-global\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">S&amp;P Global <\/a>Market Intelligence.  &#8220;As we navigate an increasingly complex global shipping environment, understanding and improving port performance is essential for economic growth and competitiveness.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p> The full report\u00a0can be accessed <a href=\"https:\/\/pages.marketintelligence.spglobal.com\/13066-Container-Port-Performance-Index-2025.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> here <\/a> . <\/p>\n<p>  About the Container Port Performance Index (CPPI) <br \/> Developed by the World Bank and <a href=\"https:\/\/investingnews.com\/stocks\/spgi\/s-p-global\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">S&amp;P Global <\/a>Market Intelligence, the global Container Port Performance Index is a comparable\u00a0index of global container port performance intended to serve as a reference point for key stakeholders in the global economy, including national governments, port authorities, development agencies, supra-national organizations and private operators of trade, logistics and supply chain services. <\/p>\n<p>  About the World Bank  ( <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldbank.org\/transport\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> www.worldbank.org\/transport <\/a> ) <br \/>The World Bank Group has a bold vision: to create a world free of poverty on a livable\u00a0planet.
