New York Palladium Event 2016

The Palladium Market

Tuesday 13th September, The Penn Club, New York

In 2016, SFA (Oxford) proudly launched The Palladium Standard to put palladium firmly on the map with a dedicated annual review devoted to the metal. Our event was a huge success with attendance up 60%, highlighting specific interest in palladium. Our first edition reinforced the positive fundamentals of the market and included a timely, guest contribution from Mick McMullen, President and CEO of Stillwater Mining Company. When we launched The Palladium Standard in September 2016 the palladium price was $660/oz, but by July 2017 the price was up 30%. 

 

 

The platinum industry went through traumatic times in 2015 and, despite recent positive automotive figures from Europe, the uncertainty over growth in China and geopolitical stresses and volatility in oil markets mean the Oxford Platinum Lectures took place at a pivotal moment for the PGM industry.

Our event brought together authorities from across the platinum landscape to discuss the fundamental shifts in the industry, with an emphasis on those parts of the value chain where major investments are being made.
