Talk:Trafigura

Headquarters
The headquarters are not in geneva. The company structure is so complicated that it is not really sure where they are. Here is an article about it in german https://www.derbund.ch/die-groesste-schweizer-firma-ist-ploetzlich-keine-schweizer-firma-mehr-867177596821 I translate the important excerpt: Die Firma hat gemäss dem Geschäftsbericht den Hauptsitz in Singapur, dieser gehört zu einer niederländischen Holding. Diese wird wiederum von einer panamaischen Stiftung kontrolliert. Die grossen Handelsbüros – also der Kern des Geschäfts – befinden sich in Amsterdam und Genf.

The company has officially the headquarters in singapoore, this one is owned by a dutch holding company. This in turn is controlled by a foundation in panama. The big trading offices are in amsterdam and geneva. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:168:A1C9:0:F0AD:89D1:2E2F:FBBC (talk) 07:30, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

I am disclosing my conflict of interest with Trafigura. I would like to request the following edits to the opening paragraph.

The current opening statement is incorrect: Trafigura Group Pte. Ltd. is a Singaporean-based French multinational commodity trading company founded in 1993 that trades in base metals and energy.

Of note, the lead was changed to incorrectly state “French multinational’ in early March 2023 by an account that has been banned as a sock puppet and persistent vandal adding unsourced content, often adding ‘French and ‘France’ to articles. DIFF: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trafigura&diff=1143428327&oldid=1142617386

Though Trafigura is domiciled in Singapore, we have regional hubs and I have provided sources for this.

My proposed text is:

“Trafigura is a multinational commodity trading company domiciled in Singapore with major regional hubs in Geneva, Houston, Montevideo and Mumbai, founded in 1993.” Thank you, RK.from.Trafigura (talk) 10:35, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

 * As the provided FT source was paywalled, the claim regarding net profit could not be confirmed. Thus, a inline template was applied.
 * Hi, thank you for your implementation. As for the source for the $7 billion figure, this is another paywalled article, but the number is included in its title; would it be satisfactory for corroboration purposes? Thank you, RK.from.Trafigura (talk) 03:03, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
