In a BPL, a group of European based banks (the pool), create a European firm whose sole purpose is to loan money to a US based company.  Because this loan to the European based bank is completely insured, the BPL does not have as high a risk if the loan is defaulted on.  Additionally, the pool actually makes more annual interest than if they were to loan money traditionally.  This allows US based firms to borrow as much as $10,000,000 completely interest free as long as it is backed by collateral of some sort (usually stock).  The Regulations require that the loan be of "good value" and so the newly formed European company usually requires securities to back the loan to pass this qualification.

Hess sold its gas station network to Marathon Petroleum (which operates under the retail brand Speedway); sold its wholesale and retail oil, natural gas and electricity marketing business to Direct Energy; closed its refineries in Port Reading NJ and St. Croix USVI (Hovensa JV with PDVSA); sold its bulk storage and terminalling business mostly to Buckeye Partners; and sold its 50% interests in two New Jersey power plants to their respective JV partners (Bayonne Energy Center: ArcLight Capital and Newark Energy Center: Ares EIF).

The 2000s commodities boom or the "commodities super cycle" was the rise, and fall, of many physical commodity prices (such as those of food stuffs, oil, metals, chemicals, fuels and the like) which occurred during the first two decades of the 2000s (2000–2014), following the Great Commodities Depression of the 1980s and 1990s.  The boom was largely due to the rising demand from emerging markets such as the BRIC countries, particularly China during the period from 1992 to 2013, as well as the result of concerns over long-term supply availability.  There was a sharp down-turn in prices during 2008 and early 2009 as a result of the credit crunch and sovereign debt crisis, but prices began to rise as demand recovered from late 2009 to mid-2010.  Oil began to slip downwards after mid-2010, but peaked at $101.80 on 30 and 31 January 2011, as the Egyptian political crisis and rioting broke out, leading to concerns over both the safe use of the Suez Canal and overall security in Arabia itself.  On 3 March, Libya's National Oil Corp said that output had halved due to the departure of foreign workers.  As this happened, Brent Crude surged to a new high of above $116.00 a barrel as supply disruptions and potential for more unrest in the Middle East and North Africa continued to worry investors.  Thus the price of oil kept rising into the 2010s.  The commodities super-cycle peaked in 2011, "driven by a combination of strong demand from emerging nations and low supply growth."  Prior to 2002, only 5 to 10 per cent of trading in the commodities market was attributable to investors.  Since 2002 "30 per cent of trading is attributable to investors in the commodities market" which "has caused higher price volatility."
