WHERE PHYSICAL TRADE MEETS FINANCIAL STRUCTURE
Energy transactions are physical, financial and operational at the same time.
Trade Science brings these elements into a single transaction framework: sourcing and commercial terms, financial structure, counterparty coordination, logistics and delivery.
This combination of physical trading and structured finance defines how we approach complex international transactions.
