Key Risk Considerations
What can disrupt a commodity business?
A well-designed programme should reflect how an incident could affect your goods, values, contractual obligations and supply chain. These are some of the areas we consider when reviewing the risk.
Stock value volatility
Peak values and accumulation can change by season, location and price movement.
Quality & deterioration
Temperature, moisture, contamination and delay can affect saleability.
Storage & transit
Responsibility can pass between owner, warehouse, carrier and buyer.
Counterparty & crime
Non-payment, document fraud and employee dishonesty can reach the balance sheet.

Connecting value, transit and contractual performance
We review how commodities are valued, stored, moved and sold before developing the placement strategy.
- Review of values, transit, storage and contractual interests
