Softcover. Zustand: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Meet the traders who supply the world with oil, metal, and food, regardless of the conditions in their source countries. This eye-opening exploration reveals the powerful and secretive world of billionaire commodity traders who buy, hoard, and sell the earth's resources. The narrative uncovers how a select group of businessmen became vital players in global markets, facilitating immense growth in international trade and linking resource-rich nations--often plagued by corruption or conflict--with financial hubs worldwide. It also highlights how some traders gained significant political influence, aiding figures like Saddam Hussein in oil sales, supporting the Libyan rebels during the Arab Spring, and channeling funds to Vladimir Putin's regime despite sanctions. This account offers a revealing look into the often-overlooked dynamics of the global economy and capitalism itself. Acclaimed as a Financial Times Best Read of 2021, the work shines a light on the crucial yet underappreciated role of commodity traders in finance and geopolitics. It presents a compelling narrative about a sector where civil wars and unstable regimes often become mere business opportunities, making for both an intriguing and alarming read.…
