description Financialisation of commodities commenced from the year 2009 with massive inflows of institutional investment. There is mixed evidence as to whether this financialisation of commodities has led to increase in price volatility of the commodities.

The analysis indicates a unidirectional causality as well as the existence of volatility spillovers from the stock market to the commodities market.
