Abstract: The present research explores the investors' behavioural intention towards the commodity market in an emerging economy. Drawing cues from the extant literature, this research identifies and empirically prioritises the dimensions of investor intention regarding commodity trading. Based on the RIDIT analysis, the findings indicate that a lower degree of risk, geopolitical changes, and a higher rate of return are the most important dimensions based on the respondent perceptions. These findings offer newer insights on this under-explored domain to facilitate conceptual development and policy formulation. The portfolio managers, market regulators, and financial institutions can take cues from the study findings to redesign their strategies for attracting investors to commodity exchanges.
