Commodities Exchange for Ethiopia
Traders take note. Ethiopia aims to launch a commodities exchange in September of this year.
The Ethiopian Commodities Exchange (ECEX) will be fully automated and provide daily-indexed prices on the following goods:
- Coffee
- Sesame
- Haricot beans
- Teff
- Wheat
- Maize
The market is an attempt to bring order and transparency to the agricultural sector, thus making it more efficient. Studies estimate that only a third of the grain produced by Ethiopian farmers makes it to market. I’m guessing that the farmers themselves consume much of the remainder, but apparently there is significant surplus that is not utilized.
The ECEX will electronically connect 10 different warehouses throughout the country, establish 20 remote trading sites, and 200 electronic information boards in various rural areas. It is hoped that these initiatives will level the playing field between producer and purchaser. Smallholders will know what their produce is actually worth on the market, thus preventing them from being taken advantage of. It should also allow them to make more efficient cropping decisions.
Dr. Eleni G. Medhin heads the project. She has contributed a number of very thoughtful pieces on the nature of markets to the Ethiopian press recently.

I love this idea, do you know if the ECEX is up and running or who I could contact to get more information?
Thanks

Dear Visitors, This blog is really nice and informative. We are pleased to know this blog is really helping people. Its our pleasure to post informative content on this useful blog created by webmaster. Currently something is cooking in the Indian stock market, We know it but unfortunately we cant disclose the reason so openly. We strongly suggest everyone not to take any long position at these levels. We will see Pullback in the market very soon but that will be a fake one so don’t consider pullback as opportunity to go Long in market( Delivery based). As after that initial pullback we can see fall once again. As mentioned cant disclose it still giving minor hint see call and put section and think why you are not able to access few options and check December part and think who are the people behind it?? We suggest wait for falls to take delivery till then prefer only intraday else you will find yourself out of BSE and NSE one fine day. For any query feel free to contact us.
