Every day, thousands of ships crisscross the oceans, carrying the goods that power the global economy.
But flying at the stern of those ships often flies a flag that puzzles people.
Many vessels are registered in countries they’ve never visited, and in some cases cannot visit, under legal systems chosen not for geography, but for convenience. 
This practice shapes labor, safety, and the cost of everything you buy. 
Learn more about flags of convenience, how they work, and why they matter on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
