How the platform works

One pipeline to all parties. You can add or change providers with ease. We assess your IT needs and manage the on-boarding project for you. Faster time-to-market and reduced operational costs. The legal framework is equally streamlined, resulting in a simplified, manageable hedge agreement between you and your hedge provider.

Onboarding process

The onboarding process is simple. We come on site, perform a gap analysis and establish a project plan with you.

System integration and platform set up is followed by the test phase. We then ‘go-live’, and the team are here to support you thereafter.
