The private desk for commodities and private assets.
Sourcing, structuring, movement and settlement, attended at every hour.
Who we are
A private desk acting for principals and family offices, from the first quiet conversation to the final receipt of title.
We act on a small number of mandates at a time. Every client is held by the desk directly, and our standards of service are written into the arrangement we sign together.
From origin to the receipt of title, one desk attends the whole passage.

How we act
Five steps, one desk.
Every mandate follows the same order. You always know where it stands.
- 01
A private introduction
You are introduced, or you ask to be. A desk officer listens first: what you hold, what you need and by when.
- 02
Verification, discreetly
Identity and counterparty checks completed to the full standard, without asking you for anything twice.
- 03
Structure and paper
Terms, contracts and trade documents drawn up and reviewed with you before anything moves.
- 04
Movement
Vessels, aircraft, inspection and carriage booked and followed hour by hour.
- 05
Settlement and receipt
Payment settles and title passes against documents. You receive a sealed record of the mandate.
Privacy
Nothing kept that need not be.
- Named counterparts onlyYour mandate is known to the people working on it, and to no one else.
- Minimum disclosureWe ask for what compliance requires and what the arrangement needs.
- Sealed recordsEach mandate closes with a sealed record, released only to you or on lawful request.
