  • Redstone Commodity Update Q3
    Welcome to the Redstone Commodity Update 2020: Q3 Welcome to the Redstone Commodity Moves Update Q3 2020, another quarter in a year that has been strongly defined by the pandemic. Overall recruitment levels across the board are still down, although we have seen some pockets of hiring intent. There appears to be a general acknowledgement across all market segments that growth must still be encouraged and planned for, this has taken the form in some quite senior / structural moves. The types of hires witnessed tend to pre-empt more mid-junior levels hires within the same companies in following quarters, which leaves us predicting a stronger than expected finish to Q4 2020 and start to Q1 2021 than we had previously planned for coming out of Q2. The highest volume of moves tracked fell to the energy markets, notably, within power and gas and not within the traditional oil focused roles, overall, we are starting to see greater progress towards carbon neutrality targets. Banks such as ABN, BNP and SocGen have all reduced / pulled out providing commodity trade finance, we can expect competition for the acquiring of finance lines to heat up in the coming months until either new lenders step into the market or more traditional lenders swallow up much of the market. We must also be aware of the potential impact of the US elections on global trade as countries such as Great Britain and China (amongst others) await the outcome of the impending election. Many national trade strategies and corporate investment strategies will hinge on this result in a way that no previous election has.

  • The Redstone Commodity Update 2019: Q2
    Welcome to the Redstone Commodity Update 2019: Q2 Q2 has rounded off a good first half year for commodities in general, across the board we are seeing more bullish markets with companies raising their recruitment levels rise in tandem. Energy was by far and away the standout sector producing around half of the total moves tracked. This represents some significant strategic and tactical shifts in the industry as players look to diversify their offerings, which feeds into our ship and bunker segment due to the changes being implemented for bunker players in 2020. Essentially the bunker market is currently acting as a microcosm for the wider oil and gas sectors moving forwards. The apparent easing of trade tensions between China and the US has in no small part added to the gains seen across the commodities markets this quarter. As a general rule the market has continued its forward momentum from last year in spite of the ongoing trade spat, thereby making Trump’s and Xi’s most recent accord very welcome. __________________________________________________________________________________ Noteworthy Energy Talent Moves The back and forth with oil prices has continued this quarter with the average price per barrel maintaining an overall upward trend. US exports continued to rise above previous records as it enjoys OPEC’s continued output reduction measures, as well as the markets need to make up for the shortfalls experienced from the fallout of Iran’s actions in the Middle East and continued political and social unrest in Venezuela. Recruitment wise Energy was the big player this quarter making up the clear majority of moves we tracked.

  • Noteworthy Energy Talent Moves
    Welcome to the Redstone Commodity Update 2020: Q2 Welcome to the Redstone Commodity Moves Update Q2 2020, fair to say a difficult quarter all round with the total recorded moves falling below the usual year on year activity as expected. As the fall in global economic activity and production takes hold, many are holding onto the hope for a quick recovery. As market data is released it certainly looks like many major economies have taken harder hits than initially expected. That said, over the last fortnight we have seen an increased interest, predominantly within EMEA but also to an extent within the APAC region as well. Unfortunately, it seems the peak has yet to hit within the Americas in spite of early attempts by the US to reopen many parts of its economy. LatAm and unfortunately Brazil in particular continue to be particularly hard hit by the virus. Overall, the majority of moves reported fall within the EMEA region, with the exception being the Metals / Coals section where we have seen the greatest number of moves fall within the APAC region. Each region is also seeing a particular restructuring to how people are working, with working from home looking like the new norm for many. How this will affect centralised head offices and management structures remains to be seen, with many traditionalists searching for ways to bring people back into their respective offices safely, the other side of this coin being many professionals actually maintaining or even increasing their productivity with remote working. It will be interesting to see how this alters the nature of recruitment and employee engagement moving forward.
