This is a major step for us in growing our coverage in commodities overall and more specifically in products which help to reduce carbon emissions globally. We look forward to developing new futures and options contracts in EV battery materials together with LME and the trading community by bringing liquidity and transparency into a variety of metal and chemical markets”

The London Metal Exchange, established in 1877, is the world centre for the trading of industrial metals. Through LME, producers and consumers of metal have the ability to hedge against the risk of increasing and decreasing world metal prices. RIB Brokers are execution only brokers, who can broker trades for clients and members on an anonymous basis and block trades on LMESmart.
