Gold sponsor — OZK Group https://ozk-group.ru/en/ The OZK Group is the only Russian infrastructure company with the state equity participation in the Russian agricultural market. It ranks among the top-5 exporters of Russian grain. The Group's assets include eight elevators with a total storage capacity of 590,000 tonnes, three grain processing plants with a total capacity of 490,000 tonnes per year, two maritime grain terminals with a total transshipment capacity of 7.8 million tonnes of grain per year, and a fleet of hopper wagons. Three main business activities of the OZK Group include servicing the Federal Intervention Fund for agricultural products, exporting Russian grain, and developing instruments for agricultural commodities trading. For over two decades, the company has been acting as the state agent for conducting procurement and commodity interventions and ensuring the safety of the grain stored in the Federal Intervention Fund for agricultural products. Since 2001, 21.5 million tonnes of grain have been purchased for the Fund. As of August 2024, the OZK Group has been executing measures to auction wheat from the Fund to support Russian millers and bakers, in accordance with the order by the Government of the Russian Federation. Furthermore, the Group engages in the digital transformation of the Russian grain industry and promotes the development of instruments for agricultural commodities trading. To this end, as of 2021, the OZK Group has been holding daily auctions for the purchase and supply of wheat on the National Mercantile Exchange (NAMEX). The commodity auction mechanism ensures the equal access conditions for all participants, the formation of an economically justifiable price for the commodity, the openness and transparency of trading, as well as the non-interference by the auction organizer in pricing. Regular grain commodity auctions have empowered NAMEX to start calculating the Wheat Exchange Index on the CPT Novorossiysk delivery basis in May 2022. They also have enabled Moscow Exchange to launch trading in a cash-settled futures contract for wheat in August 2022. The NAMEX Wheat Index was assessed by the Bank of Russia, the Federal Antimonopoly Service, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia. As a result, the Index has been recognized as representative and transparent. In its turn, the cash-settled futures contract is the only exchange contract for Russian wheat in Russia, and in the world. It allows Russian agricultural producers, millers, grain processors, and exporters to hedge risks and insure themselves against price fluctuations in the global grain market. Today, the OZK Group offers to its partners the highest standards of responsibility and service when supplying grain and other agricultural products from Russia to the global market. This includes a whole new level of export operations on a one-stop-shop basis, solutions to any logistics issues, and reliable grain deliveries right on time.
