Over the years, there has been a growing realization that building a commodity trading and risk management (CTRM) solution is not a trivial task. Indeed, quite the opposite. It is a hugely complex piece of software that can never seem to meet all the varied needs of all the different types of companies buying and selling commodities around the globe.
New Sourcing Strategies: The role of Outsourcing and Homeshoring in Contact C...EightyTwenty Insight
Are Mixed Model Operations an opportunity for contact centres to access skills,
capabilities and lower costs in harsh times? Or an overly complex solution which risks
damaging service and brand?
The challenges faced by organisations with large-scale contact centre operations have
recently become more acute and complex and the balance between cost containment
and customer needs has never been more difficult to achieve. Web 2.0 (consumer to
consume) behaviours will reduce the amount of contact and make the remaining quality
of interactions even more vital to customer retention. More radical thinking is required to
achieve this balance. The Contact Centre has to have Board level support and
organisations have to think more like their customers. Alternative Sourcing Models and
new technology (often hosted) will need to be embraced to keep pace.
Even the largest companies will benefit from partnering with external providers as
technology becomes the key driver of value and savings. Outsourcing, Shared Services
and Homeshoring pose less risk and offer real value and will continue to grow but
companies must get smarter about how to exploit them to their full potential. Sourcing
strategies need to be better thought through and become more sophisticated if these
alternative models are to be fully exploited.
This paper provides an informed and independent view on the evolution and value of Outsourcing and the Mixed Sourcing Model in contact centre operations, particularly in light of the current, urgent need to reduce costs and the rapidly changing consumer demands. It further highlights many of the current Contact Centre trends and issues, both strategic and operational, and focuses on the use of Alternative Service Delivery Models (ASDM’s) such as outsourcing and home-shoring in meeting these challenges.

Whitepaper channel cloud computing paper 2Ian Moyse ☁
In Part One we discussed how cloud computing is changing the historic landscape of the channel as we know it and what to expect. In Part Two we will look at what areas of cloud computing you should consider and what you can do about it.
Rising to the New Challenges of Transactional Services in the Public SectorCapgemini
Companies and government agencies alike are moving their activities online.
The rising curve of online service delivery adoption has raised expectations of service levels. Yet many transactions in the public sector are often still provided by systems that were not intended, designed and built to support the exponential user and data growth.
Subsequently, the rise of online service delivery not only requires new investment but also adds new risks in making these systems secure for an online world with its increasing levels of cyber crime. Both the private and the public sectors are under pressure to reduce the costs associated with delivery of transactional services.
But since our last paper on the topic was published, three significant trends have emerged:
- The increased urgency to reduce fraud and non-compliance
- The changing nature of Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) and Shared Services strategies moving away from pure cost reduction to transformational outsourcing
- The rapid rise of Cloud technology, with dramatic changes to delivery models
Read our paper to learn more about how government can learn from the private sector in order to tackle these issues.
ISVs in the Cloud, considerations for a successful transitionSwyx
ISVs transitioning to a SaaS business model should have three key considerations: 1) to avoid infrastructure, 2) which platform and 3) how to fund working capital.
This white paper discusses customer self-service in business-to-business order to cash processes through the use of Electronic Invoice Presentment and Payment (EIPP). EIPP allows customers to access invoices and billing information online, reducing costs for companies. The paper outlines strategies for companies to encourage customer adoption of EIPP, such as understanding customer needs, focusing on internal adoption first, and actively marketing EIPP internally and externally to achieve full acceptance and return on investment. Successful EIPP implementation can significantly improve cash flow, lower costs, and enhance the customer experience.
The document discusses democratizing social CRM by making social customer data accessible to all enterprise applications, not just a select few, through the Buzzient API. It argues that social CRM should be available across both cloud and on-premise applications in a hybrid environment, rather than an all-or-nothing proposition. The API aims to give customers control and portability over their own social data, rather than locking them into specific vendor platforms.
The document discusses cloud messaging and positioning for telecommunications companies. It notes that while cloud is still nascent for major telcos, it represents a key growth area. The document outlines barriers to cloud adoption and recommends developing customer-specific messaging to address concerns. It also suggests telecoms emphasize their infrastructure, scale, and ability to offer end-to-end service level agreements as strengths in the cloud space. Finally, it provides examples of a Philippine telecom company's cloud customers to illustrate current use cases.
Building Innovative Industry Solutions for System zdkang
This document summarizes a presentation about using System z for smarter computing. It discusses how System z can help organizations reduce IT costs across various industries by up to 56% while improving capabilities. Examples are given of companies leveraging System z to deliver new innovations in areas like transportation, banking, and technology. Industry frameworks are presented as the foundation of IBM's industry solutions, with System z playing a key role in supporting workloads like core banking, payments, and risk management.
As banks adapt to market changes and new technology landscapes, cloud computing is playing a major role, providing alternative ways to access to core banking technology.
The document discusses how cloud computing, mobility, and big data represent a game-changing revolution rather than just an evolution of existing technologies. It argues that business needs are driving demands for new online solutions enabled by these technologies. While cloud computing promises increased agility and lower costs, organizations must answer questions about how, where, and when to implement cloud solutions to realize the benefits. The key is for both business and IT to embrace new approaches enabled by these technologies.
Commodity trade is essential for the excellent health of the economy at large. However, Commodity trading is the most complex business with high variables from the Demand and supply side, exerting cost pressures and thinning margins; therefore, it becomes essential to have efficient processes that are flexible to accommodate last-minute changes.
BaffleSol DCMS to manage trade and risk, with its tight integration with ERP, makes it a perfect tool to bring the entire commodity functions to one platform and communicate seamlessly throughout the supply chain, with role-based real-time visibility.
This document discusses the benefits of thin client solutions for small and medium sized businesses (SMB) retailers. It outlines how thin clients can help retailers reduce operating costs through centralized management and updates while maintaining flexibility. Specifically:
- Thin clients move computing resources like applications and data to centralized servers, allowing the same systems to be accessed from different locations. This cuts costs while improving availability.
- Adopting thin clients reduces total cost of ownership through lower maintenance, downtime, energy usage and hardware costs compared to traditional PC-based systems. Savings of up to 48% in total costs are possible.
- Thin clients simplify system management for retailers as updates and changes are administered centrally rather than on individual terminals
The document discusses how clouds, mobility, and big data together create a revolution in business capabilities when used together. It provides a use case example of how an airport authority could use these technologies together in an "outside-in" model, rather than traditional "inside-out" IT systems, to allow real-time collaboration between different groups' employees to solve operational issues as they arise. This would allow improved efficiency and customer satisfaction over just using individual groups' internal IT systems.
This document summarizes a white paper about companies' journeys toward cloud computing. It discusses how companies initially experimented with non-critical workloads in the cloud but are now looking to move mission-critical workloads. Key requirements for moving critical workloads include governance, security, scalability, reliability and performance standards. Companies also need to consider quality of service objectives in hybrid environments without increasing staff overhead. The document uses a customer example of a phased approach starting with exploratory pilots using development and test workloads before moving to more critical production workloads.
This document discusses monetizing machine-to-machine (M2M) communications and the billing requirements for M2M. Key points made in the document include:
1) M2M connectivity is growing rapidly due to falling technology costs and a maturing ecosystem of providers and applications.
2) M2M represents a massive scale business with huge transaction volumes but low average revenue per user (ARPU), requiring highly scalable and low-cost billing solutions.
3) Successful M2M business models require flexible billing to support new partnership models, vertical industry applications, and evolving combinations of services across the M2M value chain.
The document discusses the importance of small businesses to the U.S. economy and wireless carriers. It notes that there are over 30 million small businesses in the U.S. that employ over half of American workers. Wireless technology has become crucial for small businesses to operate efficiently. The document outlines a plan for a wireless carrier to target small businesses by focusing on value through pricing and device options, network coverage and reliability, and community engagement.
Global market disruption and radical changes in CRM are occurring due to M2M technology. Integrating real-time product data into core business processes through M2M can provide competitive advantages such as more proactive customer service, new revenue opportunities, and improved marketing and sales. As hardware and connectivity costs decline, M2M integration will become more widespread and enable new business models and services across many industries.
Taking the Next Step in CTRM Cloud SolutionsCTRM Center
In the last decade, a quiet revolution has occurred within the E/CTRM (Energy/Commodity Trading and Risk Management) software category as vendors and users have increasingly adopted the cloud-computing model. This move has been driven by demand largely for more affordable E/CTRM software as reflected by a lower total cost of ownership. Increasing regulatory and shareholder scrutiny has meant that even smaller commodity traders need to abandon spreadsheets and similar unstructured and difficult to audit tools in favor of more robust solutions. However, even the smallest of commodity trading companies has pretty broad and complex requirements meaning that they actually still require a fully-fledged application to meet their needs, but one that fits within a budget that reflects the size of their business.
In recent years, consumer and business cloud-based applications have begun to catch on and that familiarity does seem to have benefited the E/CTRM in the cloud market as well, as customers are now much more familiar with the benefits than they were 5 years ago. It is important to note that it’s not just the smaller commodity traders that see the potential benefits of a cloud-based solution either. Recent ComTech research suggested that, in general, all buyers of E/CTRM software are increasingly open to considering alternatives to the traditional “on premises” implementation model. While a small, but committed, minority continue to resist anything but the traditional on-premises implementation approach, the overwhelming majority of respondents will consider cloud deployment for a variety of vertical application areas in and around commodity trading.

While a small, but committed, minority continue to resist anything but the traditional on-premises implementation approach, the overwhelming majority of respondents will consider cloud deployment for a variety of vertical application areas in and around commodity trading.
In the world of E/CTRM software much is changing and at a fair pace. Driven by a plethora of new business needs, massive shifts in technology, and changes in software procurement behavior, it is a software category that is ripe for a true paradigm shift. In a paper written a few years ago, Commodity Technology Advisory (ComTech) outlined a potential solution to some of the issues that have plagued buyers of E/CTRM software for decades.
In that paper, the authors proposed a different approach to architecting E/CTRM solutions – that is creating an ecosystem of software capabilities rather than relying on the monolithic applications that have, or invariably will, become increasingly expensive and difficult to deploy, update and maintain.
ComTech noted that such an approach was both technically feasible given the advent of cloud technologies and desirable as it helped solve the myriad of business issues buyers face today. Since then, business trends have continued to evolve in directions around data management, digitalization and automation, and collaboration. More recently, lockdowns and the need for business continuity have only served to push the envelope faster and further.
Tidemark Enterprise Disruption In The Cloud Zd NetGregory Pence
A new startup called Tidemark offers a cloud-based system to help enterprises analyze and act on corporate data in a more flexible way than traditional on-premise software. Tidemark was designed specifically for the cloud model and focuses on business users rather than IT. This allows for easier implementation and use of the software to drive business decisions. While large vendors will eventually become strong cloud competitors, Tidemark has an opportunity to establish itself in the growing cloud market by rapidly innovating and showing the value of its cloud-based approach.
Historically, the ETRM/CTRM replacement market has been quite small and relatively slow. There simply hasn’t been so many replacements and where replacements of ETRM/CTRM solutions have taken place, it had usually been because of a truly compelling need. Usually, that reason would be that the vendor had repeatedly and persistently failed to deliver the requirements, or support the ETRM/CTRM installed, and usually, this would be because the vendor had been acquired, gone out of business or had dropped support of the product.
As the price of storage and bandwidth continues to drop fast, Cloud-based services are becoming more and more attractive to small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) which are seeking to reduce licensing costs, avoid recruiting IT staff and focus fully on their core responsibility - growing the business.
The Evolution of Smart Commodity ManagementCTRM Center
Over the last twenty or more years, global wholesale commodity markets have grown and evolved substantially and in the process, a sizeable new software category has been established. That software category is widely known as Commodity Management (CM) software and, at the highest level, it can be defined as those software applications, architectures and tools that support the business processes associated with managing commodities. CM software therefore comprises a broad set of functions that can vary considerably depending on which commodities are traded, what assets are employed in the business, where those assets are located, and what the nature of the company’s business strategy and associated business processes. CM software continues to evolve quite rapidly in lockstep with the industry. In past years, CM focused squarely on trading and risk management as CTRM software, but in recent years it has been extended into the supply chain with solutions such as shipping and stockyard bulk handling, for example.
As the software category has evolved, so has the volume and nature of the data that the software captures, manipulates and stores. Today, big data is an increasingly important aspect of the commodity management world as vast quantities of many types of structured and unstructured data potentially hold the key to profitability and even survival of companies that sell or purchase commodities and raw materials. As a result, the requirements that users place on CM software are also changing from essentially an after the trade recording and reporting system, to one that provides real intelligence and value back to the business.

How the Cloud is Revolutionizing the Retail IndustryRaymark
The document discusses how cloud computing is revolutionizing the retail industry. It describes how the cloud model provides retailers with cost efficiency through reduced IT costs, scalability to adapt to changing demand, and reliability through redundant resources and easy migration of services. The cloud allows retailers to focus on their core business instead of maintaining their own IT systems. It provides quick deployment of new software and services. Major retailers are seeing benefits such as increased revenue and profit margins from cloud-based systems.
Company Name aims to capitalize on growing demand for cloud computing solutions by acquiring new cloud customers and solidifying its market share. It is well positioned due to its market presence, offerings, and technical expertise. However, additional financing of $500k is needed to fund aggressive customer acquisition efforts through investments in online marketing, sales resources, and processes tailored for cloud sales. This will drive 15 months of negative cash flow but recoup costs within 26 months, maximizing the company's potential in the lucrative cloud market.
The retail industry in the past few years has been a witness to an exponential rise, a recessionary downfall and a subsequent comeback. The industry today is thriving and has been recording new heights and opening up new business avenues and channels. The growth of the industry however has been plagued by several challenges. This whitepaper attempts to clarify these challenges, predominantly the IT challenges, by offering an understanding of cloud computing, and the business benefits it can bring.
Leveraging the cloud for improved performanceCTRM Center
While delivery of applications and services in the cloud has been a part and parcel of business for over a decade, adoption of cloud-delivered CTRM applications (not to be confused with hosted solutions), has taken time to develop. However, the collapse in commodity prices and profitability over the last several years has incentivized firms in the commodities space to rethink their approach to acquiring and managing IT solutions.
With increasing market experience with these products, market activity over the last few years indicates that adoption of cloud CTRM solutions is increasing rapidly as the lower cost of entry, benefits of a pay as you go approach, and realization that the cloud can actually be more secure than on-premises, have all aided its growth.
Risk as a Service – The Next Thing in Affordable Corporate Risk Management?CTRM Center
In the past, the use of ‘sophisticated’ risk tools and metrics was considered the bailiwick of the very largest entities that could afford to develop and run with such an approach. Often they saw advanced risk analytics as offering them a strategic and/or competitive advantage in the market. Others in the commodities space simply could not afford to perform sophisticated risk analytics and anyway, they often didn’t have the skills onboard to perform, or even understand, them appropriately.
Some firms resorted to using more simplistic reporting of positions, or other metrics, to monitor ‘risk’ and/or used somewhat simplistic limits for various forms of market and/or credit risk. Often, the calculation of exposures, or at-risk capital, value or earnings, or PFE, took a great deal of time to compute and if something went wrong, like a missing price for example, the calculation might simply crash before completion. This meant that often, risk exposures were only accurate well after the fact and were never available to inform the business when needed.

The Strategic Route To E Procurement Success 2001Julian Curtiss
It is sobering to think that many of the eBusiness decisions that
have taken place appear to be been done in abject isolation of
standard corporate strategy principles.
The document discusses the evolution of Energy Trading and Risk Management (ETRM) systems over the past 20 years. It highlights how newer ETRM solutions focus more on system architecture and design compared to older solutions. The document then summarizes Contigo's approach to ETRM system design, which emphasizes principles like modularity, integration capabilities, and a time-series data architecture to enable rapid implementation and flexibility.
CTRM - The Next Generation - ComTechAdvisory Vendor Technical UpdateCTRM Center
There is no doubt that technology has undergone a sea-change over the last decade or so potentially making it possible to build and deploy software faster and more cost-effectively while offering a host of features that help users to work smarter, faster and with less opportunity for error. Additionally, the way that applications are designed and built has also changed to take better advantage of these technologies. While arguably there is no single technology that facilitates a paradigm shift in Commodity Trading and Risk Management (CTRM) software, when you combine advances in all areas of solution development and deployment technology, then such a leap forward is both likely and desirable.
Nowhere is the gap between the possibilities offered by these leaps in technology and what is available as commercial solutions more apparent than in the commodity trading and risk management software category. There are many aging, legacy, solutions still being utilized, marketed, and deployed and yet, this is an industry that is experiencing unprecedented demands and change, which in turn, are placing increasing demands on the software it utilizes. What most commodity firms are seeking is more agile software platforms that can allow them to adapt and evolve through these changes. This growing demand is also accentuated by the younger, more tech-savvy people entering the business whose expectations are not being met by many existing solutions.
To prosper in this new environment insurance companies can look to the cloud, in conjunction with other technologies, to help drive reinvention of their business model to offer new services and create direct, multi-channel relationships with customers
This document discusses challenges with managing customer identities and compares different approaches companies take to address these challenges. It outlines the issues with building a custom solution ("homegrown" approach) or stitching together existing systems ("Frankenstein" approach) and argues that a specialized cloud-based customer identity and access management (CIAM) platform ("buy it, don't build it" approach) provides the best value through lower total cost of ownership and improved customer experiences. An example compares the costs of a custom solution versus a CIAM platform for a company with 1 million customers and 5 application integrations.
Managing Supply Chain Complexity and ExposuresCTRM Center
The supply chains for bulk commodities, including agricultural, metals/ores and some energies, are complex – usually necessitating transportation and storage using trucks, trains, ships, barges, pipelines, and terminals/storage facilities. These movements, and the assets utilized to make them, introduce and accumulate both cost and risk to the commodities owners with each step in the chain.
Additionally, as these commodities transit the supply chain, they may undergo changes that will impact their value, both as traded commodities and as a stock or inventory. These events can include transformations to finished products (such as refining crude oil into numerous petroleum products or grains milled into flour) and repackaging from bulk loads into smaller containers such as bags for wholesale or retail sales.
Global Sugar - A Complex Market that Requires a Fit for Purpose CTRM SolutionCTRM Center
Sugar is a global commodity, with almost 180 million metric tons being produced in more than 120 countries each year. Though much of the sugar produced by these countries is consumed locally in food products or, increasingly, for ethanol production, the largest producing countries are often exporters as well and in total contribute 60-70 million metric tons delivered into the global market each year.
Putting Data at the Heart of Energy TradingCTRM Center
In a digital world, data is King, and while energy and commodities have been going through a period of digitalizing for the last several years, there can be no doubt that coming up with data management strategies has also played an important, if not critical, role in those strategies as well. Indeed, this was strongly emphasized in Commodity Technology Advisory’s disruptive technologies research over the last few years, where more than half of all of those questioned in the industry.
US Dairy Markets – Digitalizing to address complexity and volatilityCTRM Center
The document discusses the complexity of the US dairy market and the need for digitalization. It notes that dairy production has unique characteristics that result in highly volatile prices. The US system of Federal Milk Marketing Orders adds further complexity by establishing pricing classes. Despite record milk prices in 2022, dairy farmers struggled with high costs. The document advocates for the use of futures and derivatives to manage price risk, but notes spreadsheet-based systems cannot adequately handle large hedging programs. It argues that digital platforms are needed to provide visibility, optimize decisions, and improve profitability in volatile markets.
Diversifying Into Renewable Energy: Challenges And OpportunitiesCTRM Center
The energy transition is the move away from fossil fuels towards renewable and sustainable forms of production and generation, in combination with increasing decarbonization (net zero) and electrification. The motivations behind the energy transition are primarily political, environmental, and increasingly, financial. Mostly, it is driven by Governments and international bodies (like the EU, which also sees renewables to increase its’ energy independence) through goal setting, provision of incentives, and legislation such as the US’s Inflation Reduction Act.
The push for decarbonization and ESG is also now being championed by large banks and financial institutions like Barclays Bank, who recently announced that it had tightened its financing rules and abandoned financing for oil exploration altogether. Over the last 12-months or so, geopolitics has played an ever-greater role in shaping the energy industry and the energy transition, as the fall-out from the Russia-Ukraine war has interfered with the energy transition agenda, resulting in soaring power and natural gas prices. This has wrought havoc with consumers and suppliers alike and stalled, or temporarily reversed, certain net zero initiatives, and encouraged the specter of market intervention.
The integration of trade and risk management solutions with the corporate accounting solution has long been an area of focus for commodity companies and software vendors alike. There are many apocryphal stories in the industry regarding trading profits that entitled trader’s to be paid large bonuses. Those trading profits then seem to evaporate when accounted for in the enterprise accounting system. These stories are symptomatic of a broader but important issue – that of integrating two sets of solutions to provide timely and accurate auditable results. Over the last three decades, many different approaches have been tried out and mooted to address and solve the problems. This paper will examine the problem and discuss potential solutions including highlighting the approach taken by Enuit.
How can your ETRM / CTRM solution help with creditCTRM Center
Current market conditions are forcing many firms exposed to commodities to perform a re-evaluation of their credit risk systems and business processes. As most commodity prices are extremely volatile and progressively rising through time due to issues like shortages, supply chain disruptions of various types including most importantly, political sanctions, increased demand and so on, default by a counterparty is seen as increasingly likely. Indeed, were it not for Government intervention, a few high-profile firms would already have defaulted. However, the need to manage cash more effectively is also driving an enhanced focus on credit risk as many commodity firms face huge margin calls from various exchanges and increased scrutiny by lenders. Importantly, the rapid emergence of regulations around ESG and carbon, whether planned or actual, are also having a huge impact on counterparty credit worthiness. As firms review their credit solutions, they are scrutinizing their ETRM / CTRM solutions and their role in managing credit risk as well.
In an era that is likely to be dominated by the energy transition, metals are set to become the new foundation of modern society. As more of everything is powered by clean electricity, demand for metals will pick up with everything from greater quantities of base metals needed to make batteries to store it all the way through to copper for the cables to carry it.
Other metals like iron in the form of steel, along with rare earth elements and speciality metals, will all also be needed in ever greater quantities to support electrification and construction. Metals like Lithium, Cobalt, Manganese, Zinc, Mercury, Silver, Cadmium are the key components of many types of battery along with Graphite in some instance.
RPS and RECs – Managing an Increasing Regulatory BurdenCTRM Center
Renewable energy certificates or ‘RECs’ have become the currency of the renewable power industry, allowing power providers to expand their product offerings and offer ‘green’ power irrespective of whether or not they can physically generate it. RECs also assure consumers who opt to buy renewable power, that that power has either come directly from a renewable generator, or if a renewable generator is not servicing their facility, that it is offset in the market by power from a renewable source, such as wind, solar or hydro, in another geographic area.
Global Renewables Transition Requires Dedicated ETRM CapabilitiesCTRM Center
Renewable energy resource development is accelerating around the globe as the push to reduce carbon emissions continues to gain momentum.
As the pace of renewable energy expansion quickens, market participants will continue to adjust to the commercial and financial implications as well as production variability and intermittency, reliability, and grid stability. In this white paper we will explore the changing nature of power markets, the complexities that will challenge utilities, power off-takers and traders, and the critical ETRM systems they rely on to ensure profitability.
Global LNG Navigating Risks in a Dynamic MarketCTRM Center
Liquified natural gas (LNG) has been a traded commodity for more than a century. But only in the last couple of decades has the market expanded to meet the ever-increasing demand for energy, through low carbon emissions energy sources. With the development of the massive Qatar LNG facilities in the mid-1990s and the increasing demand for imported gas, global LNG trading has grown from about 50 MTPA in 1990 to more than 350 MTPA in 2020.
Most energy commodities struggled with lower trade and consumption volumes under the pandemic-induced industrial shutdowns in 2020. LNG trade was, however, up slightly at 0.4% during the year, continuing its uninterrupted streak of year-over-year growth since 1996. However, that growth was far below rates in the preceding years which averaged 7% since 2004.
Disruptive Technologies – A 2021 UpdateCTRM Center
The survey found that cloud/SaaS and data management initiatives continue to be a focus, while AI/ML are seen as having more potential impact but are still in earlier adoption phases. Blockchain remains further from widespread practical application than previously thought. Respondents expect the most investment in cloud/SaaS and AI/ML over the next few years, and see AI/ML having the most potential impact in areas like data analysis, asset modeling, and price forecasting. Disruptive technologies are seen as most likely to emerge from cloud-based AI/ML vendors and platforms that facilitate digitalization of business processes.
In all of its forms, risk management is rapidly growing in importance within the commodity asset class. It will only become even more critical and complex in the future. Driven by unprecedented levels of change in the industry ranging from geopolitics to carbon, effective risk management is shifting for many commodity firms from just another activity to be managed to a critical component of business strategy that helps drive and inform brand, gain financing and trust, and demonstrates proper controls.
Reimagining Energy Trading and Risk Management (ETRM) With Advanced Delivery ...CTRM Center
ETRM systems are, by their nature, complex software products as the software must mirror the full complexity of the commodities industries, markets, and assets that they serve. Spanning from contract administration through invoicing and settlement, the business processes involved in commodity trading varies greatly. This variation is created by the unique combinations and nature of the physical or financial commodity or commodities traded, as well as by the industry segment (power generation/trading, gas production/trading, agricultural production/trading, etc.), the assets employed in the supply chain(s) and geographic differences (North American power vs. European vs. Japan, for example).
Risk and Compliance – Lessons learned and looking beyond the COVID-19 EraCTRM Center
While it is commonly believed that the pandemic was a black swan event, according to most risk experts it wasn’t. As they point out, the COVID Pandemic was an event that was foreseeable in its occurrence, though perhaps not in its timing. Despite being (thankfully) rare, these types of events do occur and bring with them an increased awareness of the importance of proper and holistic risk management practices, not only as it applies to external risks (as the pandemic was), but also commercial and internal risks as well.
2021 Trends in Agricultural and Soft Commodities TradingCTRM Center
Arguably, all commodity and commodity-exposed businesses are facing unprecedented change and disruption. These numerous challenges range from climate and carbon to COVID lockdowns and work from home, to managing geopolitical and operational risks through supply chains while seeking to digitalise, automate and increase efficiencies across the business.
While talk of a new commodities supercycle may be premature, global population growth and the resulting increased demand suggest rising prices and volatilities, especially in agricultural commodities. Companies need enhanced agility in such markets. It starts with a modern software platform that provides adequate visibility and control over the business, from managing physical movements to limiting risks and exposure.
Achieving Digitalization in a Document Intensive Energy MarketCTRM Center
As energy companies seek to become more efficient and agile in a rapidly changing marketplace fraught with risks, digitalization - the process of evolving from manual or analog processes to more efficient and cost effective digital processes by reducing the number of times data is touched and ensuring greater accuracy and more rapid movement of data and information throughout the enterprise – continues to attract attention from CIOs across the energy value chain.
The global market for CTRM (Commodity Trading and Risk Management) software solutions that cater specifically for metals and ores trading and risk management is the third largest among the major commodity groupings of energy, ags & softs, and metals, at an estimated $174m in expenditures in 2019 according to ComTech’s most recent market sizing report. It is also among the most complex of these markets in terms of its functional requirements, especially in areas like concentrates and ores. Complexity is also found throughout the supply chain. Perhaps these are just some of the reasons why the metals market for CTRM and CM (Commodity Management) software have been underserved by commercially available solutions in the past.
For most raw materials and commodities, the supply chain is both long and complex. Increasingly, firms have been focusing on these supply chains in an effort to better control operational risks and exposures, but increased geopolitical and other risks have now served to sharpened that focus even further.
Issues like COVID-19 lockdowns and trade wars, for example, have meant that managing sourcing, movements, processing, production, procurement, contracts, storage and other activities along complex supply chains more effectively not only reduces costs and improves profitability, but also helps ensure business continuity. Meanwhile, although CTRM (Commodity Trading and Risk Management) software applications that help manage trades and the risks associated with trading are seen as critical, the broader commodity management aspects around managing the supply chain more effectively are rightly gaining in importance.
2020 CTRM Vendor Perception Survey and AnalysisCTRM Center
The 2020 Commodity Technology Advisory’s Vendor Perception Study is a biennial survey and analysis conducted to establish end-user and market influencer perceptions of the CTRM vendors, and to determine market leadership perceptions as well as buying criteria and brand awareness of the different vendors. As in previous years, the research survey was comprised of a comprehensive set of questions that CTRM end-users and industry consultants were invited to answer.
