The Singapore International Ferrous Week (SIFW) 2024 stands as a cornerstone event within the ferrous metals and shipping sectors, reflecting Singapore's integral role as a worldwide hub for commodity trading. Held at the iconic Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre, over 1,300 specialists and senior members of the industry from approximately 18 nations attended SIFW, fostering a vibrant exchange of ideas and potential partnerships.

BPI Financial Group (BPI) is honoured to receive the SGX Most Active Commodities Futures Broker of 2023 at the prestigious SGX Commodities Reception and Awards Night, which was held at the side of SIFW. Awarded for two consecutive years, this is only made possible through our clients’ unwavering trust and support over these years.

The SIFW’s forums, including the Singapore Iron Ore Forum co-hosted by SGX Commodities and Fastmarkets, offered expert insights into the iron ore market, discussing challenges and the trajectory towards steel decarbonization—a critical role of steel’s journey to net zero. Furthermore, the Green Steel Forum highlighted the industry’s pivot towards sustainable practices, and global shift to decarbonization.

Active participation in the Singapore Green Steel Forum allowed BPI to share its strategies in navigating the volatile commodity markets. BPI offers a comprehensive suite of products designed to aid clients in effective risk management, and provides unified global market access, including to Chinese markets.
