Receive Insights from 3,000 Commodity Risk Professionals
Commodity markets in 2026 are defined by volatility, fragmentation and accelerating structural change. Geopolitical tensions, the energy transition, climate disruption and shifting regulation are placing new demands on organisations operating across global supply chains.
As a result, commodity risk management is evolving from a traditional control function into a strategic capability. Risk teams are increasingly expected to inform commercial decision-making, support trading performance and help organisations navigate uncertainty with greater agility.
At the same time, the skillset required within risk functions is expanding. Advanced analytics, modelling and cross-functional communication are becoming essential alongside established expertise in market and credit risk.
To understand how these shifts are reshaping the profession, Proco Group surveyed 3,000 commodity risk professionals across trading houses, energy companies, financial institutions and industrial firms worldwide. This report presents the key findings, offering a clear view of emerging risk priorities, capability gaps and the future direction of commodity risk management in 2026.
