Heidmar sees tremendous growth potential and profit opportunity in these new markets. Risk management is a key element of Heidmar's operations and trading strategy.
Heidmar Trading
Heidmar's freight trading business strategically aligns the interests of Heidmar and its pool members with whom it partners. Heidmar takes time charters vessels for its own account directly and by way of joint ventures and employs them in Heidmar pools alongside the tonnage of the other pool members.
Risk management is a key element of Heidmar's operations and trading strategy. We have a dedicated freight trading and derivatives team with global coverage for the purpose of reducing the Company’s exposure to the volatility of freight and fuel prices and mitigating commercial risk, by employing sophisticated hedging strategies employed to maximize risk-adjusted returns.
Heidmar is an active member of the Norwegian Options Clearing House ("NOS"), publicly-listed and based in Oslo, Norway and clears a substantial portion of its freight contracts via London Clearing House and CME Clearport.
