Our Approach

Risk Assessment


Financial, operational and market risks are major aspects of commodities trading and physical supply that should be constantly evaluated, planned and managed.

Malko has a sophisticated risk management system as well as processes and controls, which are continuously renewed and updated. We apply a range of risk management tools in order to minimize exposure:

• Strict due diligence of all counterparties prior to engagement in any kind of contract
• Hedging of commodity price and risks with many different financial tools.
• Due diligence prior to acquisition and good management after acquisition to hedge operational and environmental risks.
• Insurance of various operational risks, including freight-related risks.
• Our ability and experience to effectively manage risk ensures the stability on each trade.
