Abstract

The article presents synthetically the sugar market outlook for 2014 – agricultural seasons 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 – highlighting the main factors influencing 2014 and 2015 sugar prices evolution. We also present the role of main actors on the world sugar market (major sugar exporting and producing countries 2014). On the basis of the analysis of refined sugar stock prices at London (Stock) Exchange, we conclude that, in 2014, (a) sugar prices dropped compared to those recorded in 2013, and (b) the price volatility decreased in relation to previous years. The downward trend of sugar prices was maintained in 2015.
