<![CDATA[
The 14th annual Platts Steel Markets North America Conference will be held March 20-21, 2018, at the Ritz Carlton in downtown Chicago.
The Platts organization says the conference will have programming of interest to steel producers, traders and manufacturers who rely on steel. Attendees include senior management from steel and scrap producers, suppliers, service centers, traders, buyers, investors and analysts—as many as 150 companies in all, according to Platts.
In 2018 there will be a post-conference workshop on “Price Risk Management in Steel.” Platts says the “executive level” workshop can be registered for separately or in tandem with the annual conference as part of a discount package.
Regarding the workshop, Platts says, “The use of derivatives throughout the steel supply chain is growing. Iron ore futures contracts have taken off and are very active. Companies are looking into mitigating their price risk exposure on steel products and scrap. The post-conference workshop (on March 21) walks [attendees] through the tactics and strategies that can protect their bottom lines.”
