WE’VE WORKED WITH A DIVERSE CUTOMER BASE. HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?
.
A complete solution that work for your commodity business.
solutions for
your trading needs
M2M:-
Mark to-Market (M2M) principle is
typical for the commodity trading
market; it is the signed contracts'
value at the current market price.
You can now generate monthly,
weekly, or even daily basis the value of
the open contract at the market price
as of that moment.
Also, the P&L can be generated to
decide quickly if a transaction was
profitable or not on a company level, a
department level and even on the
individual trader level.
Workflows:-
DCMS lets you set up workflows for
any function and link them to the
rights of a user.
User-based Roles and responsibilities
for trading, logistics, and financial
processes ensure the assignment of
duties to check unauthorized access
to contracts, invoicing, and trading
positions, thereby maintaining critical
information security and
confidentiality.
Contracts to derivatives:-
Linking the contracts to derivatives provides the
necessary transparency and insight into the risk
position of the trader. This is very useful
information not only for the trader, but also for
other departments and for audits. changes in the
position form a trigger for the report or alerts that
the trader reminds to take action. It shows real-time
data, so action can be taken immediately in case of
i.e. market fluctuations. Whether it concerns
futures, options, forex or forex options, all types of
derivatives can be handled by the system.
Flexibility to multiple
Allocations:-
A commodity goes through various allocations from
the trade to logistics to final delivery.
Allocations could be 1:1, 1:n, n:n, however this can
change any time , thus commodity industry needs a
solution flexible to accommodate multiple
allocations and that’s what DCMS does effortlessly.
Integrated solution with automation and BI's power is essential to gain real-time insight
into the contracts, costs, margins, trade positions, logistics performance and the key
financial figures. custom-made software for CTRM, non-integrated CTRM and ERP
solutions and the frequently used spreadsheet applications offer an insufficient solution
to support commodity traders and manufacturers with their trading effectively.

4. Risk Management
Commodities can be traded in the cash
(spot) market and the futures market. With
the futures market, trading involves future
obligations to make or take delivery at a
future date. However, there are risks
involved in the trade of commodities. huge
price fluctuations adversely affect the
commodity market as become more
complex by the day.
commodity risks involve:
• Price risks
• Quantity Risk
• Cost risk
• Regulatory risk
Having the relevant risk management
framework with the right people with the
right tools, provides a clear vision of the
state of the business and the risks
associated with the trading
Managing commodity risk is a complex task
with enormous amount of data to process.

process tons of data with the Help of
BaffleSol-DCMS
Against a backdrop of price
volatility, cost pressures and
competition, commodity trading
firms are experiencing
challenging times. Despite this,
many firms are still relying on
traditional, manually intensive
methods to evaluate and
respond to risk. In this
increasingly competitive and
volatile environment, holistic
credit risk management is an
important component of
industry best practice.
Commodity trading firms must
be prepared to respond quickly,
while still planning for the future.
They also need to balance the
need for increased efficiency
with the risk of excessive cost
cutting. DCMS is built on the
latest technology and is designed
to help our clients improve their
risk management capabilities,
enhance operational efficiencies,
and reduce costs.

combines all functionalities of an
ERP to effortlessly communicate

existing processes and systems.

and operational complexity with
more accurate analytics,

PowerBI tools and Power Apps with best UI
experience with live dashboards that can
develop a matrics by configuring various
risk factors like Mark to market, realized
profits and losses, and my more such to
make data centric predictive models to
mitigate risks.
Contract Management
The challenge trading institutions now face
is that so much information has to be
gathered together from various places and
owners to create a ‘good’ contract be it
forward or future. Standard office software
helps but requires significant effort to
manage and communicate change and
offers no visibility to the process.
The digitalization of Contract Management
is allowing experts in various fields to
collaborate real time with marketing teams
to create a more
reliable and efficient environment in
which to trade and distribute
commodities.
“The benefits of using technology
are many and diverse, primarily
speed, accuracy, security,
transparency, compliance, scale
and flexibility.”
- Vikas Garg, CTO, BaffleSol
Cost Management
The primary role of commodity trading
firms is to identify and optimize those
transformations. An important
determinant of the optimization process
is the cost of making the
transformations. These costs include
transportation costs (for making spatial
transformations), storage costs
(including the cost of financing
inventory), and processing/refining
costs. These costs depend, in part, on
constraints/bottlenecks in the
transformation processes. All else equal,
the tighter the constraints affecting a
particular transformation process, the
more expensive that transformation is.
price levels affect the profitability of
commodity trading primarily through
their effect on the cost of financing
transactions, and their association with
the volume of transactions that are
undertaken.
DCMS gives you complete visibility of
every step-in commodity transformation
to have accurate cost and price
structures.
