Given the tectonic shifts in global markets, commodity exchanges in Russia and EAEU countries have become a reliable channel for the wholesale of raw materials and a successful tool for regulating markets. Unlike Western exchanges, which primarily trade in derivatives with no physical delivery, their activities reflect real transactions on the commodity market and serve as the basis for objective price indicators and market statistics. What are some of the problems with and prospects for the integration of organized trading on international commodity markets in countries that maintain friendly relations with Russia? What new opportunities exist for attracting foreign investors and traders, as well as promoting national price indicators on the global commodity market?
