Commodities – Into the Mainstream

London, 10 July 2012

Commodities now serve the dual role of inputs into the production process and financial investment vehicles. Guy Isherwood examines the influence of financial institutions on commodity markets. In a three-part analysis, Guy Isherwood examines the impact of financial institutions moving into commodity markets. Alistair Feeney assesses the effect of tighter regulation, and William Knottenbelt says shifts in financial power make structural change inevitable.

In this issue of Quantum – Finance in Perspective, a quarterly magazine published on behalf of the Qatar Financial Centre Authority, we examine several of these areas, including commodity markets, macroeconomic policy, cross-border regulation and the readiness of shareholders to flex their muscles.
