Asset Allocation in Commodity Markets

Adam Zaremba ()

Chapter Chapter One in The Financialization of Commodity Markets, 2015, pp 1-7 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The focus of this book is strategic asset allocation in commodity markets in relation to the phenomenon of financialization, which is the growing importance of financial investors to these markets. Terms such as asset class, strategic allocation, and even commodities, are not unambiguously understood in existing literature on the subject. The aim of this chapter is to clarify the key issues discussed in the book. In the first place, we will discuss and understand the classes of investment assets; next, we will define strategic asset allocation; and finally, we will propose methods aimed at gaining exposure to commodity markets and examine their importance to this study.
