In October 2025, the LME announced its roadmap for the development of sustainable metal premium pricing for LME-approved brands. This includes the launch of a new HKEX Group company in Dubai that will serve as the pricing administrator, and the publication of a discussion paper on its proposed pricing methodology.

The LME Roadmap on Sustainable Metals Premia (PDF) sets out details on the LME’s approach to sustainable metal premium price discovery – built on the foundational pillars of standardisation and transparency – as well as the important role of the pricing administrator and the link between sustainable metal and critical minerals supply security.
