We have the reassurance that our data and assets are protected by Brady’s multi-layered security, in line with industry standards. We are confident that the team and the solution will meet our trading and compliance needs."

"During our selection process we were convinced that Brady’s EDM offered the most solid solution to meet the market requirements for the forthcoming Nordic Balancing Settlement initiative, which is fundamental to companies operating in the Nordic market. Key to our decision is Brady’s partnership approach working with ourselves and other customers to ensure that the NBS project requirements are met, in time and on budget, without compromising on quality."

"Having relied on Brady energy solutions for several years and following a recent review of all the leading vendors in the space, it was clear to us that Brady provided all the advanced functionality to meet our needs, the lowest implementation risk and the most credible customer references in the Nordic markets, with the largest install base in the region. Additionally, we find the team at Brady very responsive and easy to work with, resulting in a great partnership.

“We can now effortlessly share P&L reporting and other key performance indicators with all internal stakeholders on a daily basis. Brady’s reporting dashboard is perhaps our most visible and important Internal report at WFSO.

We are grateful for Brady’s support and flexibility to meet our specific requirements.”

"We require an ETRM solution to offer our portfolio management services to our customers. Brady ETRM is the natural choice for us, having deployed another Brady solution for several years. Having enjoyed a great working relationship with Brady and having seen the latest version of the ETRM solution, it was an easy decision to opt for Brady going forwards. We are also confident that the data migration process required between the platforms will also be a seamless and secure process."

"Without having a dedicated back-office system means that a lot of time is dedicated to updating multiple systems and databases, where it could be better spent on activity related directly to the business. With the Brady CTRM solution in place, we will have better clarity for analysis, improved efficiency and reliability through the reassurance of an automated platform, enabling us to fully concentrate all our efforts into our core business of trading and risk management. As we expand the business into physical trading and extend our commodity portfolio, we know that the solution we have chosen is scalable to meet the demands of these new markets quickly and efficiently."

"In recent years the base metals market has seen the exit of many traditional broker dealers and liquidity providers. There has also been a significant growth in regulation (such as Dodd Frank, EMIR and MIFID II), increasing the need to capture and retain more trade data. Koch’s exchange volumes are higher than ever before which requires a stable and robust CTRM to manage these challenges as efficiently and effectively as possible. We view Brady’s solution as the best-in-class for base metals trading and particularly in addressing LME requirements. It continues to play a central role in our business and helps us maintain our competitive edge."

"Brady’s solution offers the best coverage and flexibility we’ve seen in the market. The breadth of contracts that can be entered and valued is extensive. Even though we use it largely for metals trading, we can just as easily book interest swaps, FX deals or incorporate ags or petroleum deals. Another major advantage is the ease in which we can incorporate our own calculations, extract and import data, slice and dice information in the way we want to, without the need to invest in additional resources. For example, we have seen some systems take a significant number of fields just to import a futures trade. With Brady’s solution we only need to fill a much smaller number of fields for the same trade."

"Brady offers a wide range of interfaces for specialised packaged software products in areas such as accounting and credit management. This makes the process of integrating our data less complicated, quicker to implement and more cost-effective."

"Investing in a new software platform is an important decision, which is also associated with a degree of risk. To meet the challenges we face in the complex and highly volatile markets in which we operate, we are confident that we have sufficiently mitigated that risk by selecting a solution that can support the full requirements of the metal processing value chain. The Brady team affords the most thorough understanding of the metals markets in the CTRM space, which coupled with its unparalleled portfolio of customer references, provides us with the proven assurance of Brady’s capability to meet our requirements and deliver."

"Brady’s robust risk engine and its expertise and experience in providing specialised tools for trading and risk management of base metals have provided us with a solid foundation for the continuing development and growth of our business."
