Metal Bulletin, an international journal on metals, yesterday released its rankings for the most accurate base metal prices forecasters in 2017.

ABN AMRO's Casper Burgering claimed first place, with predictions for 2017 achieving 96.4% accuracy.

Casper Burgering from Sector Advisory commented: 'We draw on an integrated vision of the world economy to arrive at our predictions of price changes - and that's very much a team effort. That said, I'm happy to be leading the pack on base metals this year!'.

In the past few years, fellow economist Georgette Boele had come in at the top end of the league table with her forecasts for precious metals on several occasions.
