About the product

The World Commodity Survey explores recent world trends and developments which have had an impact on commodity markets. It presents comprehensive, practical information on the increasingly globalized markets for over 80 commodities that are produced and traded internationally. The survey also contains a discussion on key commoditized industry sectors as well as the main commodity-related services. It also discusses the final crises of the 20th century in which the fall in commodity prices is only one aspect. The World Commodity Survey also looks at the wave of mega-mergers and acquisitions which swept through the business world in 1998 and 1999, the development of electronic applications in derivatives markets and the significance of the fall and rise of long-term capital management.
