Richard Holtum

Richard Holtum is the CEO of Trafigura, one of the world's leading commodity trading firms. He recently made headlines by discussing the potential for Trafigura to resume trading Russian crude oil, contingent upon the complete lifting of sanctions against Russia. Holtum, along with other executives, expressed caution about the legal implications of such a move, given the company's British ownership and the existing sanctions imposed by Western governments.
