After issuing an RFP sent out to a different vendors in search for a Commodity Trade Finance Risk & Collateral Management System, Natixis has chosen MIT’s software TRAC (Trade Risk Active Control) to support its Commodity Trade Finance teams around the world.
The implementation project is actually divided into three lots. The first lot will see the Go-live of the Paris and Singapore branches, which is foreseen during first quarter of 2012. The second lot will come in a second phase with other Asian branches connecting to the system. Finally, the third lot should see the New York City branch handling its commodity trade finance business using TRAC.
