At a glance

No need to fear volatile commodity prices, because you can count on reliable hedges
  • Commodity prices are regularly exposed to strong fluctuations. The higher the direct commodity costs in your production and the greater the proportion of secondary risks.
  • The greater the proportion of secondary risks, such as currency exchange rates, energy, transport and logistics costs, in the total costs, the more serious the consequences for your business success.
  • Our solutions for active commodity price risk management will help you achieve more planning certainty with the help of financial instruments in the energy and agricultural markets, in emissions trading as well as in industrial and precious metals.
