This book will provide a single point of reference for those interested in the commodity markets, both buy and sell side. The book will provide detailed coverage of a variety of commodity markets and their derivatives. The book will analyse the following markets of both soft and hard commodities: precious metals (e.g. gold, silver, platinum group metals); base metals (e.g. zinc, copper, aluminium, nickel); oil and related products, natural gas and electricity; emissions chemical (e.g. plastics); and, weather grains/'softs' (e.g. corn, wheat, soybeans, coffee, sugar, cocoa etc.).The emphasis of the book would focus on how the end users' problems influence the eventual derivative based solution. Each section would cover: a description of the underlying markets in the main geographical locations; the physical supply chain and the main market participants; the key financial risks faced by those participants within the supply chain; and, how commodity derivatives can be applied to mitigate the risks. The book will also cover typical trading strategies used by banks and hedge funds and the role of commodities within an investment portfolio.
