A formação de preços de commodities e o processo de financeirização do setor

Abstract

This monography aims to analyze the price formation of the agricultural commodities sector in the future market, focusing on the impacts caused by the financialization process, seeking to understand the consequences of this resource, both directly and as price gaps, as indirectly, as in stability. The methodology used was a study based on other literatures that also address the theme and, on the synthesis and analysis of data from the sector, under a more targeted perspective after the 2000s. The results obtained show that the process of financialization of commodities can influence the prices of sector, however, the greatest impact of this process is in relation to volatility, being responsible for exposing sudden movements in prices, as in major economic crises. In addition, the future market, given its high liquidity and leverage, allows the sector to have a more intense financial flow and increasingly related to other financial market assets.
