Abstract
The economic, technical and political issues which bear on the
security of nuclear fuel supply internationally are addressed. The
structure of international markets for nuclear fuel is delineated; this
includes an analysis of the political constraints on fuel availability,
especially the connection to supplier nonproliferation policies. The
historical development of nuclear fuel assurance problems is explored and
an assessment is made of future trends in supply and demand and in the
political context in which fuel trade will take place in the future.
Finally, key events and policies which will affect future assurance are
identified.
