Euronext MATIF commodities franchise: growing options volume amid high volatility in 2022

Back

Volatility in commodities markets

Volatility in the commodities markets surged significantly in 2022. This was mainly due to the invasion of Ukraine by Russia in February 2022, and to increased consumption following years of Covid.

The grains and oilseed markets were at the centre of this storm, which was exacerbated by unfavourable weather conditions in some producing areas.

Increased volatility in the grain markets prompted all participants along the value chain, in particular producers, end users and transformers, to seek efficient tools to manage their price risk in order to lock in margins and insure sustainability of their business.

Growing volume Euronext MATIF

This trend has been reflected in growing volume across Euronext MATIF considered as a very useful tool for market players across the world to lay out the price over last years.

The Euronext MATIF grains franchise has grown significantly over the last five years, with volumes increasing by 40%.

Liquidity has continued to build in the milling wheat contract, which has become a global benchmark.
