Freight Investor Services Ltd a London based broker of freight and commodity swaps on iron-ore derivatives said that iron-ore swaps, used to hedge against or bet on future prices of the steelmaking material, have advanced 13% in the past year.

According to Clarkson Plc the world’s biggest shipbroker, the market feels pretty balanced at these levels and it’s going to take the physical market to push the swaps into their next move.
