Commodities for Sustainable Development: Exchange-Traded Commodities and Other Commodity-Linked Financial Instruments offers highly focused insights into commodities investing in line with sustainability and ESG principles. The book uniquely focuses on commodities in sustainable/ESG investment portfolios, with exposure gained through the units of ETCs, and also providing up-to-date reviews of literature and theoretical concepts. Sections explain the main features of ETCs and compare them to other similar financial products—especially ones used for commodities investing—indicating relative strengths and weaknesses. Additional sections discusses the possible impact of ETCs on related markets, including underlying assets and those derived from empirical and theoretical examinations.
The empirical analysis presented in the book covers all ETCs available globally, thus offering valuable insights into the often-understudied markets. This book serves as a valuable resource for a wide range of readers—researchers, students, instructors, and professionals alike—due to its theoretical and empirical outline of the commodities-linked financial instruments, particularly ETCs.
