Arcadia Agri has selected TradesParent’s Commodity Risk Management software (RM) to provide daily up-to-date insights, analytics, reporting and monitoring of the firm’s trading and risk exposures with its proprietary Control Board and intuitive Personalised Dashboards.
Arcadia Agri is a specialist risk management company that provides commodity hedging and risk management solutions to commodity consumers and producers through Over-the-Counter (OTC) structures and transactions. These services provide clients with protection against price volatility of underlying commodities to which they are exposed through their commercial activities. Allied to these derivatives products, Arcadia Agri is also able to offer its clients structured financing solutions.
Arcadia Agri chose TradesParent based on the close personal interactions between the Arcadia and the TradesParent management teams.
On top of this, TradesParent’s profound industry knowledge and sophistication of its RM software were contributing factors. But in the end, the customer-sensitive, on-time and within budget implementations with strong returns on investment were decisive.
“At Arcadia Agri we are delighted to announce that we have selected TradesParent as our Risk Management Platform of choice,” says Paul Bloemendal (pictured), Co-Head Agricultural Commodity Trading at Arcadia Agri in Singapore. “TradesParent gives us all we need in terms of monitoring of all positions, insights in the various levels of risk, assisting in our regulatory compliance framework and full counterparty exposure analytics.
“All this is managed on our own installed Control Board and reported on personalised Dashboards in a very clear, transparent and efficient format, saving us significant amounts of time, money and manpower compared to any other system currently available in the market.
“Arcadia Agri has the same core values in terms of customer service, automation, digitalisation and transparency, so for us working with the TradesParent team was the most logical solution.
“The very fast implementation, cost structure via the subscription model and most of all output of the system make it unique in its class.”
Arcadia Agri is deploying the TradesParent RM Solution via the Cloud, which is hosted using Microsoft Azure web services.
“TradesParent’s Risk and Margin Management Solution is the leading BI software solution for food and agriculture processing & trading companies,” says Norbert Verhagen, managing director of TradesParent BV. “Top processing and trading companies use TradesParent’s unique software in Europe, Asia, and North America and I am very pleased to welcome Arcadia Agri to our distinguished client list.”
