Early in the pandemic, it’s fair to say we were a bit uneasy about how it was going to play out in the market and for our business. With IGNITE, we’ve been able to capitalize on the volatility and do quite well. Without IGNITE, we wouldn’t be able to effectively meet the needs of our clients.

In a single window, you can see all the needed information: Exposure, PnL, Quantity, Price, Day-to-Day PnL, YTD Pnl, Pricing Information, etc. This feature is so valuable since other CTRMs I have used do not offer the mentioned feature. It really helps to save time and minimize errors not constantly switching between multiple windows.

International Commodities Trader

IGNITE CTRM is central to everything we do. It plays a big role in automation which allows us to be slimmer on cost. We’re able to do well with a smaller margin and compete in a market with bigger companies that have to make more money to pay for massive overhead.
