EKA’s Commodity Trading and Risk Management (CTRM) solution is fully configured to manage the requirements of marketers, consumers and processors of Biofuels. The scope of this solution covers the procurement of raw material (sugar, corn, etc), transportation and storage, price risk management with futures and options, mark to market and P&L calculations, as well as sales and distribution of the finished product.
The solution allows you to create grades and sub grades of both raw material and finished product, and view open positions. With the high price volatility surrounding the business, Eka offers comprehensive risk management tools to identify price risks and exposures, enabling futures and options based hedging for both raw material and finished products.
The high degree of solution flexibility allows your cargo to be purchased, sold and transported in either solid or liquid form, in large or smaller packs, by truck, railroad, barge, container or vessels. With highly effective tools to track cargo status and integrated documentation facilities, Eka ensures that the physical management of the cargo is highly effective and streamlined. Mark to market calculations for purchases, sales and inventory, for both raw material and finished product, allows users to identify risky positions and maximize ongoing opportunities, given the movements in input prices and consumption opportunities.
EKA’s CTRM solution has been deployed successfully by global trading and processing organizations, helping them to effectively manage risks while bringing operational efficiency in day-to-day operations.
