Commodity Brokerage challenges

• Market and currency volatility
• Variable commodity composition, descriptions, and quality
• Burdensome administration and regulatory demands
• Complex multi-party relationships (e.g. buyers, sellers, third party contractors, etc.)
• Multi-layered logistics including multimodal transport and partners
• Globalized trade across many time zones and languages

Given this complexity, volatility, and often tight trading margins, it is critical to have full visibility in real-time on your trading operations and the underlying activities across logistics and operations.
