Sucden Financial has been synonymous with the commodity markets for nearly 40 years. Our Private Client Services (PCS) department serves individuals wishing to access the world’s financial and commodity markets, both over the telephone and via SMART, our multi product electronic trading platform.
We are delighted to launch a new series of commodity based seminars designed with the private investor in mind. The commodity sector has been explosive over the last few years and has had a significant impact on all markets. It is important that all traders have the tools available to enable them to make good trading decisions and the seminars are designed from an educational perspective to provide valuable information to individual investors about how to trade futures and gain exposure to the commodity markets.
Each seminar will concentrate on a different commodity sector and will begin with a presentation on Trading Futures which will include:
- The evolution of the futures market
- How and why we use futures
- Hedging and speculation
- The role of the exchange
- Exposure and risk
- Outrights and spreads
- Delivery and settlement
The commodity specific segments will include market information and product specifications, as well as discussion on the fundamental and geopolitical factors affecting the sectors and products covered.
Delivered by an independent industry expert, these seminars are aimed at providing an insight into commodity trading, dealing with some of the key issues facing the individual investor.
