    Dry Freight

    Seaborne trade in bulk commodities remains the backbone of globalisation with more than 11 billion tonnes of cargo carried annually. Freight rates in the dry bulk sector can be extremely volatile, rallying or declining by thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars in days.

    These levels of unpredictability mean that forward price transparency and the ability to manage price risks with financial derivatives are essential tools for any organisation with exposure to shipping rates.
