FOA Press Briefing

The impact of speculative trading in commodity
markets – a review of the evidence

Tuesday 20th September

FOA is hosting a press briefing to announce the findings of an FTI Consulting independent
report on the impact of speculation in commodity markets.

The report, which was commissioned by the Futures and Options Association, constitutes a
literature review on the impact of speculation in commodity markets and seeks to address a
number of key questions:

Are market fundamentals the key drivers of commodity markets?

Does speculation exacerbate price movements in the short and long term?

Is market volatility increased by speculation?

What are the options for policy makers?


Date: 20th September
