Chapter Chapter 2 in Global Commodities, 2021, pp 25-46 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, I present how the physical global supply chain is structured. The role of commodity traders in matching buyers and sellers from different parts of the globe. How commodities are transformed in space, time, and shape to meet participants’ needs and make a profit and arbitrage opportunities. Then, how international transactions in commodities trading are financed.
