Insights

Practical intelligence for non-ferrous trade execution.

The Moorgate Metals knowledge centre will cover market structure, grade interpretation, documentation, logistics, trade finance and fraud prevention.

Grade guide

Why “Millberry” is not a complete specification

Purity, preparation, coatings, wire diameter, attachments, moisture and sampling determine whether two offers using the same label are commercially comparable.

Trade controls

Seven checks before engaging a new scrap supplier

Corporate existence, beneficial ownership, site verification, material control, legal exportability, bank consistency and independent references.

Execution

What a trial container should prove

Not only grade: documentation accuracy, loading discipline, communication, inspection cooperation, shipping performance and claims behaviour.

Trade finance

LC at sight: protection depends on the documents

A documentary credit reduces certain payment risks, but poorly drafted conditions, weak inspection language or inconsistent documents can still disrupt settlement.

Market commentary is being prepared.

We will publish concise, decision-useful updates rather than generic price news. Commercial enquiries remain the priority during launch.
