Paper book

Paper & derivatives trading software

Futures, swaps, options, FFAs and certificates across crude, products, gas, freight and power. Mark-to-market and value-at-risk compute from approved settled prices, and every hedge can point at the physical deal it offsets — so effectiveness is measured, not asserted.

    Parametric and historical VaR, stress scenarios and hedge effectiveness.

  4. 4

    Settle

    Cleared and bilateral settlement with margin and collateral.

Built for this market

What you get for Paper & derivatives.

Configured for how this market actually trades — units, specifications, pricing conventions and settlement rules — rather than a generic template with the labels changed.

Instruments across every desk

Futures, swaps, options, FFAs and certificates, configured per commodity family rather than hard-coded.

Governed mark-to-market

MTM computes from approved settled prices only, so a value can always be traced to the price that produced it.

Parametric & historical VaR

Both methods over the curve-linked portfolio, deterministic and reproducible from the same inputs.

Hedge effectiveness

Paper hedges carry a reference to the physical trade they offset, making effectiveness measurable per relationship.

Margin & collateral

Netting-set exposure, collateral ledger and margin-call lifecycle for cleared and bilateral books.

Credit exposure

Counterparty exposure and limits checked against the live paper position.

Before you ask

Questions we get from Paper & derivatives desks.

Which VaR methods are supported?
Parametric (variance-covariance) and historical simulation, both computed from the governed settled-price history, so the same inputs always produce the same number.
How is hedge effectiveness measured?
A paper trade can reference the physical trade it hedges. Effectiveness is then measured on that relationship rather than inferred from portfolio totals.

Also covered

Every market on one platform.

Desks rarely trade one thing. Each market below runs on its own rulebook inside the same system of record — so a crude cargo and a power block share governance without sharing assumptions.

We configure the demo around your contracts, your curves and your counterparties — so you are looking at your own desk, not a sample one.
