BIS: Commodity Market Disruptions, Growth And Inflation

Date 18/05/2022

Key takeaways

• Higher commodity prices will erode global growth, as the modest growth boost for commodity exporters will only partly offset the output losses of commodity importers.
• Rising commodity prices will also intensify global inflationary pressures. The effects will be strongest for food and energy prices, but spillovers to other components of inflation are likely.
• Recent shocks have been smaller than the 1970s oil shocks but broader-based, encompassing food and industrial commodities as well as energy. Nonetheless, structural changes, as well as stronger policy frameworks and nominal anchors, make stagflation less likely to return.

Trading Venue Perimeter: Whose Interest Being Protected Under ATS Reform? By Kelvin To, Founder And President, Data Boiler Technologies

Date 18/05/2022

The public relies on market regulators and Self-Regulatory Organizations (SROs) to assure that they are not scammed in the open market. Such a market is called the Exchange. Otherwise, civilians are left with reading all the “small print” (Form ATS, ATS-N, ATS-R, ATS-G and other enhanced disclosures) on their own and taking risk engaging with a trading partner or counterparties. These are called bilateral deals or multilateral trade agreements. The trade terms and corresponding recordkeeping are subject to privacy protection. Regulators should refrain from intervening legitimate private practices.
