Abstract
The economic, technical and political issues which
bear on the security of nuclear fuel supply interna-
tionally 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
and 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.
