How a hedge is prepared

From the plan to a signature.

The forward sale is often decided on the phone. How much is sold ahead, against which limit, nobody can say that day. Here it is ready by eight.

Currency, too

Cover the group's net, not each company.

Grain is priced in euro. Rent and wages are paid in lei. One company's exposure offsets another's, so the policy covers the net.

Fictional group.
An example figure, not a promise.

What sits on the desk

Forwards, futures, FX, inputs, insurance.

One exposure, read with the plan, the cash and the covenant. Example figures, fictional. The books behind it: farm financial management.

Why it stays on your server

  3. DeterministicThe same inputs give the same answer, traceable step by step.
  4. No implementation budgetWe do the work. We read your files and set it up.

What it does not do

Plainly.

  1. It does not trade.It proposes the tranche. A named person places the order.
  2. It does not promise the weather.The probability of a bad year is shown with its source.
  3. It does not replace the accountant.It reads the books. It posts nothing.

Questions a group CFO asks first

Short answers.

Does it place the forward sale or the hedge?

No. It computes the exposure from the plan, proposes the next tranche or cover inside the limit the board signed, and keeps the margin calls in the cash forecast. A named person places the order with the trader, the broker or the bank.

Is it grain marketing software?

It does that job at group level. It shows what is sold ahead against the plan and proposes the next tranche, then reads the hedge with the cash, the debt and the covenant.

Who sees our positions?

You. It runs on your own server with no internet connection needed. Your data is shared with no one: not other companies, not us, not a cloud model or a chatbot.

Where do the market prices come from?

Market references come with Simon G., or from the sources you already pay for.

Does it cover corn and soybeans in the United States?

The United States pack is in preparation: December corn and November soybeans with the local basis, in acres, bushels and dollars.

What do we have to prepare?

Nothing. We read your files ourselves, forward sales and insurance included, from a spreadsheet if that is where they live. There is no implementation project and no budget line for one.
