Javelin Global Commodities

Founded in 2015 as a joint venture between an experienced management team and strategic industry investors, Javelin Global Commodities is headquartered in London and operates as a privately held commodities trading platform.

Javelin markets, trades, transports, hedges, finances and advises on commodities. Its portfolio extends beyond coal and natural gas to thermal and metallurgical coal, iron ore, steel products, hydrocarbons, freight, agriculture, renewables, green carbon and non-ferrous and battery metals.

The firm is particularly oriented toward physical commodity execution: connecting producers, consumers and logistics providers while combining market insight, risk management, transportation, financing and physical and financial hedging. That makes it relevant for students interested in trading, commercial analysis, operations, risk, finance and the mechanics of global supply chains.
