I am looking for an index about the supply chain shock. My senior consultant suggest that it relates to something called "international shipment freight cost".

I am wondering if there is any index relating to "international shipment freight cost" regionally or globally for each country.

Or something like freight cost, index for international shipping costs as supply chain shocks

Check Bloomberg: Baltic Dry Index(BDI), Shanghai Containerized Freight Index(SCFI) etc

You can use the Freightos data: Global Container Freight Index. This index is often used as a proxy of supply chain disruptions.
