    Abstract

    The goal of the paper is twofold: i) Re-examine the different definitions that ‘financialization’ has conveyed in the large recent literature on commodities; ii) argue in favour of visible indexes in the creation of reliable derivatives markets, taking the remarkable example of the Liquid Natural Gas indexes and inferring some lessons for the creation of derivatives in fertilizer markets
