Bloomberg Professional

Overview

Bloomberg delivers the most comprehensive view of the global commodities markets available in a single source. That means you get unparalleled insight into where markets are moving, and why. As a commodities professional you need to stay ahead of the pack. You need a clear, consolidated view of the world in a highly fragmented market. That’s where we come in.

Our dedicated commodity market journalists working in bureaus around the world bring you news as it happens; so if OPEC has something to say or there’s a refinery outage, you’re the first to hear about it.

Our recent acquisition of New Energy Finance, a leading provider of information, research in clean energy and low- carbon technology and carbon markets, is another example of our commitment to constantly upgrade and enrich the information you rely on for your informed decisions.

Pricing and statistical Data

We deliver the critical pricing and statistical data you need to make smart decisions in the energy & alternative energy, metals, agriculture, biofuels and shipping markets:

• Current and historical data from all major futures exchanges
• Over-the-counter pricing from over 50 brokerage houses
• Statistical data from governments and trade groups
• A database of 100,000+ commodity assets
• Comprehensive data on greenhouse gas reduction

The Bloomberg Commodities toolbox

Bloomberg Commodities includes calculators that help you price commodity swaps and options, spark, crack and crush spreads, gross planting margin analysis, weather analytics, a full charting and technical analysis package and forward curve analytics.

BMAP: An innovative new tool for your commodities arsenal

Commodities must move physically around the world, and that means they’re exposed to risk – and so are you. The Bloomberg interactive mapping application helps you spot potential price movements by integrating physical assets with severe weather analytics and damage and impact statements, all on one map. You can track operational risk for an individual asset or group of assets. And you can do it before floods and hurricanes hit, all with a click of a mouse. Forewarned is forearmed.
