Metals trading, composite curves and CTRM
Metals and concentrates traders are highly creative when it comes to their strategies. They manage pricing based on a wide range of variables to ensure their customers are happy, their products are competitively priced and they maintain a profit margin – even at times when industry margins are tight. One of the ways this creativity is achieved is by maintaining optionality in selecting an exchange to price against or by basing pricing on multiple exchanges through different composite curves.
