Get more value from your trading with less effort.
And time to spare for your trusted business partners.
Find out how you can ditch the spreadsheet, focus on the right products and get ready for AI technology.
If you look at it quite simply, the more efficiently you trade and the better you leverage the know-how of your team and the relationships with your trading partners, the more value you can generate. The net effect is better deals at lower total transaction costs. It may be expressed by the simple equation below:
So, if you can increase efficiency and improve collaboration, then you can grow the value of the trade. As is often the case, this is not as easy as it sounds. Many of the costs are hidden, tied in bad processes, siloed knowledge, data in the wrong place, lack of time etc. If you find that much of your trading happens with spreadsheets and emails, then you will probably recognize, what we are talking about. How many of your total transaction costs are locked in structure and processes? 20%? 30%?
The Acumex Trade Management System (TMS) helps you unlock the value hidden in inefficient processes and bring out the value of improved collaboration. You can read more about how it does that and how it may help you here:
The value generating model described above can be enhanced significantly with the addition of AI. In this case we are talking about AI to support negotiations. Why negotiations? Negotiations are a vital part of the collaborative trading with trusted partners and help bring out value based on mutual interests. The specialised AI thus strengthens the Collaboration part significantly and augments the value of the trading.
