Paris | 8 October 2026

Alkagesta attended the Miller DayWithMiller and Annual Cocktail Event in Paris on 8 October, joining more than 400 participants from across the commodity trade finance and risk ecosystem — including traders, banks, investment funds, development finance institutions, and insurance and reinsurance partners.

The centrepiece of the day was the DayWithMiller — a structured programme of workshops organised by Miller’s Credit, Surety and Political Risk team, featuring seasoned industry speakers delivering insights across trade credit, political risk, and commodity risk management. The sessions provided a forum for substantive dialogue on the frameworks and instruments that underpin responsible commodity trading — from credit and surety structures to cargo marine and political risk coverage — and an opportunity to explore how leading institutions are approaching risk management and compliance in an increasingly complex operating environment.

The workshops were followed by an evening cocktail reception, bringing together participants for further networking and relationship-building across the commodity industry’s risk and finance community.

For Alkagesta, events such as this sit at the intersection of several core priorities — reinforcing the company’s risk management framework, deepening relationships with insurance and reinsurance partners, and demonstrating the compliance and governance standards that underpin its global trading operations. With activities spanning petroleum products, biofuels, fertilizers, and steel across approximately 48 countries, Alkagesta maintains a broad network of trade finance, risk, and insurance partners whose support is central to the responsible execution of its trading activities.
