Trafigura is a global commodities trading group.[1]

History

According to the Guardian, Trafigura split in 1993 from a group of companies controlled by Marc Rich. Founders included Graham Sharp, Claude Dauphin, and Eric de Turckheim.[2]

The Marc Rich Group has stated:

Trafigura does not belong to Marc Rich and never did. The original founders and some of the current owners of Trafigura once worked for the Marc Rich Group. However, Trafigura was formed without help or finance from the Marc Rich Group, and there is no business relationship between the two companies.[3]
