. 大宗商品狂欢是“双刃剑”?商品巨头托克集团为追加保证金四处“找钱”
智通财经APP获悉,因大宗商品价格飙升引发了该行业追加保证金的通知,全球大宗商品交易商托克集团(Trafigura Group)一直在与私募股权集团进行谈判,以获得更多融资。
在俄乌冲突爆发及美欧等国家对俄罗斯实施大规模的制裁之后,大宗商品等原材料价格出现了剧烈波动,经纪商发布通知要求追加保证金。据知情人士透露,托克集团上周面临数十亿美元的追加保证金要求。
据报道,托克集团曾与黑石(BX.US)就投资约20-30亿美元优先股进行谈判,但未达成任何协议。该公司还与私募股权公司阿波罗全球管理公司(Apollo Global Management)、贝莱德(BLK.US)和KKR & Co(KKR.US)进行了接触,以寻求新的融资。
托克集团在一份声明中表示:“作为实现融资来源多元化的长期战略的一部分,我们一直在与其他资本供应商建立关系。”“我们定期与另类资本提供者就整个业务的债务和股权机会进行接触。”
去年,在大宗商品价格上涨和交易量增加的推动下,托克营收增长57%,至2310亿美元。实现净利润31亿美元,几乎是前一年16亿美元的两倍。但俄乌冲突升级以来,大宗商品价格这轮急剧的上涨,让不少企业陷入了巨额追加保证金的困境,该行业的资金需求大幅上升,流动性压力骤增。
本月稍早时候,托克集团表示,该公司从一个银行财团筹集了12亿美元的循环信贷安排,以增加其融资池,用于应对能源和大宗商品价格飙升。
