Commodity giant Trafigura is expanding into gold and silver trading, hiring three experienced traders from MKS Pamp and OCIM to strengthen its presence in the sector. The new desk will handle doré, semi-processed bars refined into bullion, and could eventually push Trafigura into the bullion market traditionally dominated by major banks.
