Description
Information technology systems play a crucial role in business strategy and are vital tools to support and track the achievement of corporate goals. Agrione Commodity Trading was developed as a single system capable of bringing information to a centralized place and integrating the various areas of your company: Execution, Commercial (trading), Risk Management, Vessel Chartering, Accounting, Controllership, Finance and the Board of Directors.
With Agrione Commodity Trading, information is entered in a centralized environment by the various companies of your group around the world and by your various business units. Redundant tasks are eliminated and the need to search for decentralized information no longer exists.
Agrione Commodity Trading is structured in four functional modules:
The Execution Module handles all contract execution processes, regardless of whether it is soybeans, soybean meal, soybean oil, corn, sunflower or wheat.
Through this module it is possible to define shipping periods, deliveries without shipment (no vessel, barge, etc.), deliveries with shipment, wash-outs, strings, circles, assignments to banks, contract nomination and invoice generation/printing. All this information can be integrated with accounting and the finance department, as well as with the other departments of your business. Contracts can be priced by each component (port premium, futures, rolling spread, etc.) or by their "flat" value.
Benefits of the Execution Module:
- Complies with international standards ANEC, GAFTA and FOSFA, with around a thousand contractual clauses, ensuring data accuracy and avoiding additional administrative costs.
- Pre-generated contract templates based on ANEC, GAFTA and FOSFA standards, with direct printing from the system.
- Automatic management of the contract balance to be settled, considering the tolerance percentage (more or less).
- Entry of contract Assignment information, whether partial or total.
- Port information, load/discharge rates and file management (SD, RE, BL, ETA, ETB).
- Eliminates the need for parallel position controls (usually in huge and unsafe spreadsheets).
- Control of Wash-outs, Circles and Strings with great ease and agility.
- Vessel nomination with practicality and agility, allocating purchase and sale contracts in just a few minutes.
- Upload of all vessel documents, immediately visible to the other departments.
- Consolidated vessel position report containing contracts, ports, invoices, strings, circles, BLs and substitutions.
- Consolidated position with what happened in the daily movement of operations.
- Automatic daily alerts about nominations, fixations and open contracts.
- Variety of reports such as contract position, invoices and invoices to be issued.
The Commercial Module manages the processes of entering new business, contract price fixations and Long & Short. Through this module it is possible to define the entire series of information that will serve as a basis for contract execution and risk analysis.
Benefits of the Commercial Module:
- Entry of new purchase and sale "Trade Slips" in less than a minute.
- Price fixations for contracts, with the final price calculated by weighted average.
- Information on vessels, managing all operations and third-party purchases.
- Contact and commercial information management of partners in a single place.
- Buyers/Sellers Give-up with information on the possibility of swapping futures contracts.
- Database with market quotations, loaded from any provider or typed directly (e.g., Paranaguá Premium).
- Entry of futures and options market positions of products versus cash and hedge.
- Long/Short with consolidated or expanded view of your exposure for real-time decisions.
- Marked-to-Market (MTM) Open Position with adjusted financial result in just seconds.
- Overview of the Commercial Position grouped by company, shipping period or vessel.
Access to the information managed by the execution department and the commercial department. The data will always be available to you, without the need for e-mail exchanges and requests that are not always answered on time.
Benefits of the Controllership Module:
- Positions (MTM) that allow easy comparison of negotiated prices with market prices, meeting IFRS and USGAAP requirements.
- Realized Position based on invoices, reporting the gross margin of the business by vessel, company, commercial unit and product.
- Forecast Cash Flow based on shipping periods, prices, ETA and invoices, integrable with your ERP.
- Contract Assignments with Structured Trade Finance control within the system itself.
- Multiple Legal Units, linking all transactions to a company, division and business unit.
- Accounting Interface with secure integration between trading, execution and accounting of contracts and invoices.
- Hedge protected against market changes through the Long/Short MTM report.
Your company must be aware of the market movement. Price volatility in the international market will determine how your company and your products compare with your competitors. Your open position at market price is one of the most important pieces of information to guide your decision with a correct assessment of your risks at all times.
Benefits of the Risk Module:
- Multiple Legal Entity: a single execution/information system for all companies, with consistency.
- Divisions between legal units: business informed and executed consistently for each division.
- Multiple Business Units: contracts analyzed by unit, division or legal entity.
All these concepts and features make Agrione Commodity Trading operate under a complex corporate structure without creating a "technological burden". Furthermore, the web technology associated with the system allows access to all data from anywhere, enabling you to optimize your performance.
