A special fund whose purpose is to intervene in commodity markets with high volatility. To protect consumers from excessively high prices and producers from not cost-covering proceeds, the fund intervenes in the market to bring supply into line with demand. In Germany, such funds have been set up with government support, especially in the agricultural market, including for wine as early as 1961 and for fattening poultry in 1971, when the government granted a start-up loan. – See sovereign wealth fund.
