The newish government is set to take a fresh look at ports as part of a wider program of IMF-mandated structural reforms. What should it do? Passing through seaports can be expensive, accounting for a big chunk of goods' wholesale costs. Price-sensitive shippers will seek out prime ports, looking for value, speed and reliability. Port efficiency is in turn linked to ownership structure. In general, private-sector involvement improves things. This liberalization process has made Portuguese ports better--investment has increased capacity and productivity has improved. But further improvements are needed, according to Rui Marquez and Carlos Cruz of the Technical University of Lisbon, if Portugal is to compete effectively for container ship business.
