Abstract
The extreme price developments of various key input factors (e.g., copper, silver) are a growing concern of managers in manufacturing companies. To examine the research relevance of this topic, we conducted a structured literature review on price risk management in manufacturing companies. We analyzed 75 papers following a systematic literature review framework. Our findings indicate that price risks are barely addressed in the supply chain risk management as well as the strategic purchasing literature. Solely one of the articles reviewed deals explicitly with the management of price risks. Based on our findings, we derived a seven-point agenda for future research.
