    The pre-eminent gathering of senior commodity executives, traders and financiers

    The global commodities sector is being reshaped. Geopolitical conflict, sanctions and a renewed focus on resource security are changing the ways in which commodities are produced, financed and traded. Supply chains are being redrawn as governments seek greater control over strategic resources, while traders and producers are investing in physical assets, processing capacity, and infrastructure to strengthen resilience. At the same time, rising power demand, an increased reliance on LNG and critical metals, as well as advances in AI are creating new sources of growth — and new risks.

    At the FT Commodities Global Summit 2027, senior executives, traders, financiers, investors and policymakers will examine how these forces are changing global commodity markets. Across three days of FT-moderated discussion, speakers will explore where capital is moving, how trade and supply chains are adapting, and where the biggest opportunities will emerge in an increasingly complex and fragmented market.
