LME Focus Day 2020
Thursday 22 October, BrightTalk
The LME Focus Day finished LME Week by offering a day of free-to-attend sessions which deep-dive into individual topics and new initiatives from the LME.
This year, we ran a series of webinars as a virtual LME Focus Day, offering the same in-depth analysis on key themes for the LME and its markets today.
Topics included the expanding LME ferrous suite, managing price risk for battery materials and responsible sourcing.
You can now watch each webinar on demand and share with colleagues.
Agenda
In this webinar we will be joined by the main Track A standards to discuss the nuances across the metals when it comes to responsible sourcing, as well as the similarities. How might responsible sourcing challenges differ from metal to metal, and what can we learn from one another as we prepare to meet the standards?
Nine months on from the outbreak of COVID-19 in China, we are seeing signs of a quick recovery for metals markets in the region – but will this continue?
This webinar will focus on the EV market, the outlook for EV metals, how COVID-19 has impacted supply and demand and what we can expect going forwards. We will also share an update on plans for an LME lithium contract, and ways that the LME can support hedging of EV and battery metals price risk.
This webinar will see industry analysts deep-dive into steel markets in Europe, Asia and America. The focus will be on the physical market and its links to financial markets, supply demand drivers and the outlook for 2021.
