Our most recent course for a Swiss asset management and social investor was greatly enhanced by a presentation by one of their coffee trading clients.  The group felt the immediate benefit of the training as the topics discussed in the early training sessions enhanced the group’s understanding of the presentation, and the real life challenges and strategies adopted by the trading client were the foundation of case studies and discussions for the remainder of the course.

“The Hedging Commodity Price Risk Course was very valuable for our investment team. We enjoyed Emma’s profound know-how of the topic as well as her ability to put theory in practice, which was greatly supported by the presence of one of our clients. The course allowed us to understand the day-to-day challenges of trading companies and thus to improve the risk assessment in our portfolio.“  Nancy Sommer, Credit Risk Management, Swiss Asset Management and Social Investor

EJJ International has confirmed public course dates for 2013 and all course agendas have been updated and refreshed to take account of market developments and participant feedback.

2013 adds a new location – Paris – to the regular venues in London, Singapore and Hong Kong. The longer London courses still include the popular visit to the LME, where base metals are still traded in open outcry sessions.

This comprehensive five day financial training course covers the most important aspects of commodity markets, related derivatives and financing structures.

The commodity markets present unique challenges such as non-homogeneity of product, physical versus paper product, delivery location and liquidity issues.  The sector enjoyed an unprecedented bull run at the beginning of the decade, and suffered a sharp pull-back as a consequence of the global financial crisis.  Understand the structural readjustments taking place and be best positioned to profit from changes in commodity trading behaviour.

This course seeks to clarify the primary influences on the major commodity sectors and equip participants with tools to assess the risk inherent in commodity related strategies.

This intensive course covers important topics in the commodity sector, from hedging techniques and investment strategies, through to loan structuring.
