Base Metals House of the Year: Société Générale Corporate & Investment Banking
Société Générale Corporate & Investment Banking (SG CIB) wins Energy Risk’s Base Metals House of the Year award for the second consecutive year as it consolidated its market-leading franchise in sales and trading, and launched ground-breaking risk management offerings in Russia and China
As global economic growth slowed in the second half of 2011 and the euro sovereign crisis escalated, base metal markets were battered by negative sentiment and endured price movements of as much as 10% in a single day. For many investors, the sharp rise in volatility and increase in correlations between different metals was a signal to either head for the exit or look for effective hedges.
