Companies need to be fleet-footed and versatile to succeed in the commodities trading and transportation business. The market is unpredictable and volatile, with prices not only affected by demand, but also by global economic and geopolitical factors, and even by seasonal changes. With our finger on the market pulse, we at Reed Smith use our legal nous to help maximize opportunities for you as they arise, while mitigating any risks – be they regulatory, dispute or competitor-related.
Over the years, we have helped clients like you prosper by providing incisive legal counsel in the set-up, restructuring, reorganization, or indeed divestiture of assets and business lines; irrespective of the prevailing price and regulatory environment. We have negotiated almost every contract connected to commodities trading and transportation. We understand the physical commodities as well as the derivatives business. Furthermore, where disputes arise, you can count on our considerable arbitration, litigation and early dispute resolution experience.
