As commodity analysts try to interpret the headlines on the Iran conflict, focus is increasingly turning towards potential recovery timeframes. Infrastructure, which was extensively damaged across the Middle East, plays a crucial role in this. Modern commodity markets are built on fragile supply chains and complex processing facilities, which require large investments and careful maintenance. In this episode, we cover the basics of infrastructure in gas and metals, as well as provide our regular update on conflict.
Speakers:
Otar Dgebuadze, European Natural Gas
Greg Shearer, Head of Base and Precious Metals Strategy
