Abstract

The report results from an exploratory mapping based on a desk study using a range of academic, policy, and media literature. It also draws on the multiple contributors’ extensive experiences as researchers, including interview data and collaborations with governments, industry, and civil society. This report presents fisheries access arrangements by mapping the major arrangements for accessing marine capture fisheries in foreign jurisdictional waters, with a particular emphasis on developing countries. This representative mapping of access arrangements provides a conceptual and empirical foundation for future work on related issues. The report focuses exclusively on industrial-scale activities, including vessels locally flagged and registered where the business is not beneficially owned in the country. The report does not examine fisheries access in general (e.g. access rights for a domestic firm in a domestic fishery). It does not undertake economic analysis nor provide policy options. This report is the first phase of a comprehensive study on analysing fishing access arrangements from an economic angle to facilitate the identification of opportunities to enhance the trade of fisheries-related services, particularly for developing countries.
