Asia is looking to increase its control of the global commodities market. New exchanges are aiming to open access to India and China, tap into local markets and increase control on global pricing.

Derivatives play a key role in risk management across commodity asset classes. The economic climate has prompted players in the Asia-Pacific region to adopt dynamic and innovative strategies.

What new opportunities and challenges does 2009 hold?

FOW’s Commodity Derivatives Asia is the primary forum to discuss pressing issues governing the derivatives market in 2009. FOW will bring together investors, brokers and producers to discuss ideas on trading, product development and engaging with the Asia Pacific market.

Further details about the topics to be covered will be available soon - watch this space!

Moscow’s two exchanges have been some of the world’s hottest spots for the futures and options specialists in recent years. The Russian derivatives market enjoyed year on year growth since 2004, though inevitably it has been affected by the global financial downturn. But Russia has been through a crisis before and many market participants predict a much faster recovery this time.

Despite the global climate, the Russian derivatives market continues to evolve and its participants predict it will become one of the biggest in the world. With the market opening up, international players are taking advantage of the opportunities available.

FOW’s Derivatives World Russia, the largest and most prestigious event covering Russian derivatives, regularly attracts over 250 delegates and is your opportunity to position yourself as a market leader.

From 2001 to 2008 Turkey enjoyed the longest period of continuous economic growth on record. Supported by notable levels of political stability, it became one of the most popular emerging markets for international investors.
