How we can help your business."Doing nothing is taking a position - best to be in control of your possible outcomes than to leave it to chance."

Risk Diagnostics & Advisory.Boards and Executives manage the health of their business, and sometimes an independent Risk Diagnostic can help them understand their business health. Just like a Doctor conducting a regular medical check up, we can assess your current commodity risk landscape so that you can decide what actions or solutions should be put in place to improve the resilience of your business through the commodity cycles.

Expert Witness.Commodity Trading can be very complex. We provide Technical Expert Testimony for Commercial Commodity disputes, covering a wide range of technical elements such as pricing, structured financing, risk management packages, logistics and contracts. Clients include Law Firms, Banks, Financiers, Mining Companies, Traders, Purchasers and users of Commodities.
|
Exposure Management Solutions.Knowing the risks to your business is only the first step to ensuring its good health. We have experience in multiple Risk Management tools, enabling us to develop bespoke solutions that align with our clients’ needs and their specific Risk Profile and Appetite. This can apply to Physical, Financial or preferably both aspects of the commodity markets. With our network of experts, these solutions can include digital technology enhancing control, governance and forecasting.
|
Trading Culture and Development.You can have the best trading and market intelligence systems available, but without the right people and culture in your business you won't receive the full suite of benefits. When we conduct the Risk Diagnostic and develop bespoke solutions, we incorporate your people into the development and implementation. They are part of the journey and are educated in the identification of risks, opportunities and the application of solutions to leverage value for your business. We work with a network of trainers and coaches to ensure you get the best from your most important asset - your people.
|
Investor Due Diligence.As an Investor, you want to ensure your investment will return what is promoted to you. We find all too often that the understanding of Commodity related risks is either under considered or not considered at all. We help Investor clients understand both the commodity risks of their investment and the opportunities to manage or even exploit those risks to provide a more certain and possibly higher return on their investment. We can also conduct reviews to ensure that there are no new risks arising post your investment.
|
Structured Finance Development.Structured Finance Solutions provides producers, traders, lender and users of commodities with a means of risk mitigation to reduce their exposure to a single country, region or commodity. The right Structured Finance Solution will mitigate impacts of any supply, demand or price shock, also providing liquidity management and risk mitigation in the production, purchase and sale process. Producers benefit from the improved cash flow certainty from the sale and lenders benefit from the expansion of business. The structures can be very complex and some parties may not be properly informed of the risks or costs. We are able to assess these products and ensure you are getting the right outcomes to meet your objectives.
