Glencore is regaining ownership of Access World because Global Capital Merchants—the British Virgin Islands–incorporated buyer that acquired Access World from Glencore in 2022—failed to repay vendor financing provided by Glencore, triggering Glencore’s initial enforcement rights under that financing arrangement.

What conditions must be met for Glencore’s reacquisition of Access World to be finalized?

Glencore’s reacquisition of Access World is subject to approvals by a Dutch court and relevant regulators, which are expected to be obtained at the start of the third quarter.
