Commodity exchange is the aim of enhancing cooperation between Belarus and Serbia

As Aleksandr Bashliy, Head of foreign economic relations at BUCE, said during a seminar held in Belgrade on 25 March with support of the Belarusian Embassy in Serbia, The Belarusian Universal Commodity Exchange (BUCE) intends to expand cooperation with Serbian business communities, including through brokerage partnership.
During the seminar, Serbian companies were exploring the possibility of using exchange mechanisms to facilitate export-import transactions with Belarusian enterprises.
Also, Aleksandr Bashliy said that it would become possible to exchange trade between the two countries and to reach a brand-new level due to accrediting a brokerage company in Serbia to represent BUCE’s interests and facilitate the involvement of Serbian business communities in the Belarusian exchange platform.
According to him, Serbia is a key trading and economic partner for Belarus in the Balkans. This is why significant focus is placed on developing cooperation between our countries, including in exchange trading. As a result, the exchange trade between Belarus and Serbia increased by 37 times last year and by ten times in January-February 2025. to Nevertheless, it needs to enhance the level of Serbian business engagement in trading on BUCE’s platform despite the rapid growth in the exchange trade. However, it is possible to effectively address this matter by accrediting an exchange broker in Serbia, who would not only assist Serbian businesses in participating in trades but also handle payments and organize logistics.
As he pointed out, a local broker would significantly simplify access for Serbian companies to the Belarusian exchange market and diversify the trade structure.
At present, there are only eight accredited Serbian resident companies, which is not enough for better results in mutual trade. A broker would allow Serbian companies to start trading on the exchange platform more quickly, without spending time on paperwork, training and other preparatory activities. 54 brokerage companies, including 21 non-residents from 10 countries were accredited by BUCE as of 25 March 2025.
The Belarusian Universal Commodity Exchange, one of the largest commodity exchanges in Eastern Europe founded in 2004, organized its first trading session in June 2005. Assistance to Belarusian enterprises with export and foreign companies with entering the Belarusian market is its main function. A wide range of metal, forestry and agricultural products, industrial and consumer goods are sold by BUCE.
NH Logistics SER has been offering IOR Importer of Record and EOR Exporter of Record services since 2001 and is a market leader in Serbia and Eurasia, supporting many clients with their import/export shipments.
