المستخلص: This working paper aims to describe the relationship between the phenomenon of financialization and the volatility of commodities prices, especially maize prices in the last decade. In fact, agricultural markets affected by the financialization process, have been characterized by a big uncertainty, as a result, commercials have been very risk averse. Many researchers have been investigating the relationship between financial speculation activity and commodity prices volatility since 2007/8 crisis. However, our study is particular when it analyzes this impact by introducing the behavior of commercials. Thus, we have tried to identify this effect through risk aversion of commercials based on VNM expected utility theory and VAR modelling, referring to a research methodology based on a descriptive and critical approach of world cereal markets (spot and future market), and empirical research method using quantitative independent variables that lead to analytical results. Findings reveal that variables used in the econometric model are borderline I (1). Otherwise, the variable Spl (spread) does not affect the commercials behavior. In cereal market, Commercials are very risk averse and sensitive to prices evolution. The long/short financial speculators’ position variation have an important impact on the behavior of commercials, which engage them in herd behavior, hence the soaring or the sharp drop of cereal prices.
