The book has outgrown the systems
Renewables, PPAs, batteries and structured products create shape, volume, basis and valuation risks that older platform estates often represent poorly.

Overview
Expertise across physical and financial markets.
We bring experience from trading technology and financial markets together with the requirements of energy and commodity businesses.
Physical delivery, financial exposure, valuation, scheduling and settlement need to be considered together when developing trading capabilities.
Our work applies trading-platform, data and control disciplines to the specific products, operating models and infrastructure of energy and commodity markets.
What is changing
Three forces on energy and commodity trading.
Volatility raises the bar for operations
Volatile markets make timely risk, P&L, collateral, settlement and invoicing more valuable. Slow close and unreconciled positions carry direct cost.
Scrutiny of wholesale markets has increased
Trading controls, conduct, reporting, surveillance and counterparty confidence now depend on evidence that the control environment works.
How we can help
Modernise physical and financial trading.
Capabilities across product lifecycles, platforms, data, risk and operations.
Client results
Trading, risk and platform disciplines from financial markets.
These examples are framed as capability transfer: market risk, credit risk, settlement, control evidence, data lineage and platform-delivery disciplines that energy trading organisations increasingly need. They are not badged as energy engagements.

Capital Markets · Operating Model
Markets front office and operations transformation for a global investment bank
Global Investment Bank · Markets Front Office & Operations
We helped redesign the Markets front office and operations operating model — moving trade capture into the front office with clean segregation of duties, standing up nine shared services and centres of excellence across client operations, trade control, margin and collateral, prime and agency derivatives, financing and treasury operations, and moving 100+ roles to lower-cost locations.
Why this applies: front-office and operations operating-model change — trade capture, margin, collateral and settlement — taken into live operation; the same delivery discipline a CTRM/ETRM transformation requires.
