Metals trading, warehouse to cash

Metals trade on exchange contracts, regional premiums, warehouse warrants, and quality, with physical movement through warehouses and vessels. Gravitas handles base and precious metals on one model, capture to cash.

Overview

Metals on a single model

Metals desks trade exchange contracts alongside physical warrants, regional premiums, and quality grades, moving metal through warehouses. Gravitas captures the exchange position, the physical warrant, the regional premium, and any hedge on one governed model, so the physical and paper legs net into one position.

Valuation handles exchange price plus premium, risk captures premium and price risk, and scheduling manages warehouse and logistics.
