Welcome to CRU, your trusted partner for navigating the dynamic mining, metals, and fertilizer markets.
Our unique selling point? We have the strongest pedigree in advising the world’s biggest technological and industrial businesses on game-changing strategies. However, we’re not merely analysts. We are a powerhouse fuelled by a network of industry connections, highly transparent methodologies, backed by a global team who speak the language of commoditymarkets.
Data founded on quality research and transparent methodologies
How do we distinguish ourselves? From forecasting demand to settling price benchmarks, our work is rooted in our proprietary foundation and contact with the market. Our methodologies are detailed, documented and transparent. If answers depend on uncertain assumptions and data, we will be the first to say so.
What sets us further apart is our objectivity - we are an independent intelligence company, which means our data is never influenced. It means our points of view aren’t either. We understand commodities at every point of the value chain, offering you a comprehensive and unbiased view. If you have a pressing inquiry about a trend, issue or event, you can rely on our consultants and analysts to bring you consistent and transparent answers.
Furthermore, we recently joined forces with Exawatt, enhancing the intellectual capital of CRU. In addition to analysing commodity markets, we can advise on the integral role of commodities vital to sustainable energy solutions and decarbonisation through electrification.
Our people are our strength
We are made up of diverse and international teams of experts who have deep knowledge of the commodity markets they cover. Our strategically located offices foster local relationships with trusted global players.
