Commodity risk management is a topic well discussed in the Black Sea Region. Some companies are proactive with this, while others continue to learn the process. The purpose of this course is to dig deeper into the strategies commercial firms can use to protect their price risk as well as discuss the new CME Black Sea wheat and corn contracts that can be used to manage price risk.
