Ever since its' inception, the LME has played a pivotal role in shaping the Metals market. From humble beginnings in 1877, the LME has grown to be the world's foremost non-ferrous metals market.

The LME has a transparent pricing policy where trading takes place 24-hours a day on various platforms. But it is most famous for its open-outcry trading between ring dealing members, which takes place on the market floor.

Each day the LME announces a set of official prices, which are used by producers, consumers and traders worldwide as the basis for contracts for physical delivery.
