Soybean hedging
We design and execute hedging programs built on proven commodity risk management principles for soybean producers, consumers and merchandisers, and are not speculatively oriented. Futures and options activities are used to assist grain marketing by providing opportunities to retain margins and manage risk.
Equities market making
Our award-winning consultants know the futures and the physical markets. To limit risk and improve margins and bottom-line results all along the entire lumber supply chain, we’ll construct a risk-management program tailored to your needs, then work closely with you to execute it.
StoneX® Hedge Merchandising System
Streamline origination. Automate offers. Simplify hedging. Our web-based merchandising system allows commercial soybean customers to automate hedging and incorporate cash bids, stream quotes, offer/order initiation and manage hedges through one easy-to-use platform.
Futures clearing & execution
Our robust back-office infrastructure enables us to manage futures clearing and allocation needs with expertise and efficiency. We offer clients 24-hour trade support and execution desks, direct market access via FIX and exchange-specific interfaces to suit your business needs.
OTC products
Over the counter (OTC) products offer benefits just like exchange-traded futures. From swaps and structured products to customized and exotic options, all our OTC offerings help farmers/producers, grain elevators/originators, and food and beverage manufacturers hedge against grain market volatility.
Managed futures
Our managers have extensive trading and market experience, but also years spent engaged in the commodities they represent, many as farmers, growers and producers. We scrutinize statistical data to fit the right managers to a portfolio and provide reports for clients to evaluate these traders daily. Selecting a manager is ultimately the client’s choice.
Physically traded products
StoneX offers clients financing and trade facilitation to provide working capital for commodity inventory and hedge margin. Our physical trades provide forward pricing and supply chain management services, allowing clients to manage their commodity commerce without tying up valuable resources.
Inventory financing
We offer inventory sales/repurchase, transactional finance, processing, and tolling arrangements for clients. We can also provide financing that is incremental to your established banking relationships. We aim to help clients optimize their fixed assets, such as storage facilities, terminals, pipelines, and processing facilities.
Soybeans solutions
At every stage of the soybeans production chain, market participants face a risk of adverse price movements caused by market vagaries and fluctuations in supply and demand. Soybeans futures and options provide a means to manage this risk and take advantage of potential profit opportunities.
Commodity risk management
Our soybeans team offers innovative risk-management tools to mitigate risk including exchange-traded futures and options, cash and forward-market contracts, and customized over-the-counter products. Let our seasoned consultants build a risk-management program tailored to your needs, and then work closely with you to execute it.
